Thomas Peterffy, the billionaire founder of Interactive Brokers, joins Real Vision to discuss how his company revolutionized the market-making industry and ultimately became the largest electronic brokerage in America.

Peterffy argues that high-frequency trading poses black-swan risks to markets worldwide, and proposes several solutions to mitigate those risks.
