Recent technological developments in the financial markets as well as the extensive role of high-frequency trading reveal interesting linguistic and translational issues. Financial Italian language and its anglicisms have been the focus of this work, whose purposes are, on the one hand, extracting the terminology contained in a research article in order to create an English-Italian glossary of terms, and, on the other hand, analyzing the hardest lexical challenges for a translator that faces such a text. This was done with a critical approach, especially as regards problems arising from the dualism between Anglicisms and communication transparency.
