About Zomojo
Zomojo is an Australian financial markets trading and technology company established
in 2005. The firm is privately owned, with employees accounting for a
significant majority of its ownership structure. The company develops
software and hardware for trading on electronic
markets. Zomojo uses this
technology for its own trading, and also markets this technology to
other clients. Zomojo is primarily active in the Asia-Pacific
region but does not trade on any Australian markets.
Expertise
Zomojo’s trading styles are very latency sensitive. In order to stay
competitive the firm invests considerable resources into the
development of novel software and hardware technologies.
This has led the firm to accumulate significant expertise in low-latency
network technology in a range of forms, including custom hardware. In
2008 the firm demonstrated a prototype exchange matching engine with
single-digit microsecond latency. Low-latency gateways with pre-trade
risk checking have also been developed for various markets.

Zomojo employs an elite team of scientists, engineers and developers, many
