LONDON (Reuters) - The London Stock Exchange said
on Wednesday its dark pool trading joint venture with Lehman
Brothers would be profitable in the first year of
operation.
The joint venture called Baikal will start business in the
first quarter of 2009.
LSE Chief Executive Clara Furse told reporters the LSE had
received good response from the buy side during a U.S. roadshow
to introduce the new platform.
