Our Mission

Level the Playing Field

We are driven by the belief that financial markets work best when many diverse firms are engaged. And low latency telecom is critical infrastructure for these firms.

McKay Brothers was at the forefront of the evolution of low latency telecom from fiber to microwave, which resulted in a dramatic increase in speed. Our firm has a history and continued commitment to innovation and technical excellence.

McKay Brothers is solely a telecom service provider. We do not trade for our own account. We offer equal access to all subscribers for each of our services. And we provide incentives for small, growing firms. 

The core of our mission is to level the playing field by providing access to the fastest telecom to the financial markets.
