Moscow Exchange (MOEX) has announced that it starts offering OTC transactions in the Euro/US Dollar currency pair based on its infrastructure and FX Market interfaces. The technological solution for access to global liquidity providers is going to be delivered by Integral. The British Pound/US Dollar currency pair was just added yesterday.
