Liquid Mercury has been selected by AlgoQuant Asset Management to supply institutional-grade trading technology and infrastructure services. The arrangement, announced from Chicago on September 28, 2026, aims to support AlgoQuant’s efforts to expand its multi-strategy investment platform and improve execution across worldwide digital asset markets.

Under the engagement, AlgoQuant will utilize Liquid Mercury’s platform to access deeper liquidity pools, advanced execution tools, and professional trading systems. These resources align with the firm’s focus on quantitative methods, risk management, and operational stability. The integration is expected to support continuous 24-hour trading while allowing the company to expand its team, capital base, and technological resources without reducing precision in trade handling.

The combination of Liquid Mercury’s established technology and AlgoQuant’s quantitative approaches is intended to facilitate complex trades on a global scale. The setup supports the firm’s goal of addressing inefficiencies in rapidly changing markets while preserving accuracy in execution and oversight.
