Finalto Is Working to Connect with Customers
The move by Finalto Group comes at a time when the global B2B multi-asset liquidity and clearing broker is committed to expanding its product offering and serving its customers in a more efficient manner. Early this month, the company added 32 leveraged equities belonging to some of the leading companies listed in the Singapore Stock Exchange (SGX) to its already impressive list of offerings. In September last year, Finalto partnered with BidFX, an institutional FX technology solutions provider, in order to expand its FX and precious metal distribution. Finalto considered the partnership with BidFX as important to bring it to wider financial markets. BidFX provides cutting-edge FX trading solutions for institutional firms such as corporations, hedge funds and asset managers. Finalto, which provides an alternative institutional multi-asset liquidity and clearing solution to their customers, regarded expanding its distribution of FX and Precious Metals through BidFX as an important milestone for the company.
