Connectivity to the exchange’s electronic platform, LME Select, is expected to launch in late 2007.

TT’s London Metal Exchange (LME) gateway will provide access to futures on non-ferrous metal products, including LMEminis for copper, aluminum and zinc, as well as standard contracts for aluminum, copper, nickel, tin, zinc, lead and a six-metal index contract, plus the world’s first futures contracts for plastics in polypropylene and linear low-density polyethylene.

Customers will have the option to host their own trading gateways or connect to the exchange through gateways hosted by TTNet, TT’s fully managed hosting solution.
