Teams at regional banks and brokers are shrinking and there is an increased pressure to do more with less. So we can be a valuable counterparty, providing deep sources of liquidity, with one point of contact for all different types of flow. With a unique ability to source liquidity and minimise footprint by looking to match flow without paying intermediary spread, we can also be a key partner for investors and speculators, catering for tougher trading strategies, typically declined by other providers.
