Marex Strengthens Asia-Pacific Footprint with SGX Membership

Finance Magnates reported earlier that Marex strengthened its presence in the Asia Pacific region by becoming a trading and clearing member of the Singapore Exchange Group (SGX). This strategic move allows Marex to provide direct trading and clearing services to clients across SGX.

It complements its recent expansion into the Australian market as a futures clearing and trading participant on the Australian Securities Exchange. The company's focus on the Asia-Pacific region is evident in its impressive annual net revenue growth of 89 percent in the first half of 2023. Marex's Head of Asia Pacific, Arthur Fan, expressed enthusiasm about the membership, emphasizing its importance and the company's commitment to deepening its presence and expanding services in the region.

Earlier, Marex successfully concluded the acquisition of Cowen's prime brokerage and outsourced trading business as part of its strategy to expand its global presence. The addition included a team of around 160 professionals across eight international offices, along with advanced trading technologies and clearing counterparties. The newly acquired business has been integrated into Marex Capital Markets.

Marex, headquartered in the UK, operates a diversified financial services business with a focus on liquidity, market access, and infrastructure services for clients in energy, commodities, and financial markets. As of mid-2023, Marex reported over $11.8 billion in customer assets, clearing on 57 exchanges.
