Knight Capital Asia Limited

澧盈資本亞洲有限公司

Knight Capital Asia Limited was the Hong Kong subsidiary of Knight Capital Group, a major US-based electronic market-making and institutional brokerage firm. Licensed for dealing in and advising on securities, the firm provided institutional clients with equity execution and trading services in Asian markets, leveraging the parent group's expertise in algorithmic and electronic trading. Knight Capital Group became widely known following a catastrophic trading algorithm incident in August 2012 that caused massive losses, leading to the firm's eventual acquisition by GETCO and the formation of KCG Holdings. The Hong Kong entity has since ceased operations following the parent group's restructuring.
