Finalto looks forward to providing its clients with new and exciting liquidity technology.
Finalto is proud to announce its expansion into a new data centre based in Singapore; evolving and improving upon already award-winning liquidity services. This strategic development underscores the company's dedication to enhancing its service offering and striving to meet the rapidly increasing needs of customers around the globe. Asia Pacific clients can now enjoy more responsive, lower latency services with the same brand of excellence Finalto has become renowned for.
Matthew Maloney, CEO of Finalto Group
Matthew Maloney, CEO of Finalto Group commented on the development, "Our global growth plan is an extension of our pledge to continually enhance our service offering to customers worldwide; our new Singapore data centre represents a significant milestone in upholding this commitment". He went on to explain that "This expansion and the localised technology supporting it will significantly improve trading experiences by reducing latency for our clients based in Asia." The interlinked system of data centres enables the company to offer stellar execution across a broad range of client locations and, with the addition of Singapore, Finalto is now a truly global liquidity provider.
Alex MacKinnon, Finalto Singapore Regional CEO, reiterated these benefits, stating, "The Singapore data centre provides our customers access to the three largest FX data centres by volume, resulting in significantly enhanced service and execution capabilities for clients based in Asia”.
Alex MacKinnon, Finalto Singapore Regional CEO
MacKinnon elucidates, “In addition to local latency decreases, Singapore is a welcome addition to our global network, acting as a fallback venue for execution in the unlikely event of downtime in London or New York." By pricing out of multiple data centres concurrently, Finalto can offer competitive speed and reliability no matter where the end user is situated. Mackinnon concluded, "With access to global liquidity sources, our clients can select the geographical centres that best meet their requirements."
The service enhancements for Finalto clients don't stop there either. The team's dedication to exceptional performance extends beyond service optimization to robust data security as well.
Mikkel Olsen, Senior R&D Manager at Finalto states, "As we extend our technological capacity into Singapore, our commitment to data security and privacy, parallels standards upheld in our London and New York centres; continually adapting and optimizing our technology in line with the ever-changing technological landscape". Finalto clients can be assured that regardless of which data centre they are being priced out of, they can continue to expect a smooth and secure experience. Even more impressively, the new Singapore data centre integration was implemented in just five months, a testament to the efficiency and expertise of Finalto's cross-functional team. "Drawing from our experience with NY4, we successfully set up the Singapore data centre within a remarkable timeline, without any significant issues," said Olsen.
Finalto looks forward to providing its clients with new and exciting liquidity technology for years to come as it continues to lead the way in best practice for the sector.
Alex MacKinnon will be attending the iFX EXPO Asia in Bangkok on June 20th-22nd. To organise a meeting with him at the event, please click the link below.

Executive Interview | Charlotte Bullock | Chief Product Officer, Bank of London | FMLS:25
In this interview, we sat down with Charlotte Bullock, Head of Product at The Bank of London, previously at SAP and now shaping product at one of the sector’s most ambitious new banking players.
Charlotte reflects on the Summit so far and talks about the culture inside fintech banks today. We look at the pressures that come with scaling, and how firms can hold onto the nimble approach that made them stand out early on.
We also cover the state of payments ahead of her appearance on the payments roundtable: the blockages financial firms face, the areas that still need fixing, and what a realistic solution looks like in 2026.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.
