EXANTE is a market leading execution-only brokerage operating in multiple different global markets. With offices in London, Cyprus, Malta and Hong Kong, EXANTE aims to provide top-of-the-range execution and platform capabilities to a demanding, professional client base. To do so, they have combined the founders’ belief in international, digitised financial markets with a firm emphasis on client safety and privacy. The firm offers a vast range of tradeable assets, a simple and effective platform, and offers clients a highly responsive, personalised service.
EXANTE began trading in 2011, initially registered in Malta, but thanks to rapid expansion now has offices worldwide, and is regulated with the FCA in London, CySec in Cyprus and the SFC in Hong Kong alongside their original Maltese registration. This global footprint offers clients access to a robust client platform that allows trading of global assets with ease, with staff always on the clock in one of their global offices. This is well-suited to an increasingly global client base, both in terms of where they are physically located as well as their investment outlook. Increasingly, trading strategies take into account global asset classes rather than focusing on a traditional product / geography niche. EXANTE’s vision as an executing broker is to provide the right tools for clients to benefit from this transition.
EXANTE operates on an execution-only mandate for client accounts, neither advising on trades nor holding positions on their own account. This allows for the company to focus on its mission of providing international market access to their client base, maintaining the highest standards of client privacy and unrivalled customer service. A guaranteed human response time of three minutes is offered to all clients 24/7, even during market closures and weekends. This allows clients to deal with any problems or questions without impacting their live trading. On the technical side, the platform is designed to provide low-latency, ultra-rapid execution across asset classes. To ensure the minimum possible downtime, EXANTE’s dedicated technology team are always working to identify bugs or issues with the platform, identifying and dealing with any minor issues that arise. Given the sheer volume of assets held in EXANTE accounts, any mistakes here would be costly and frustrating for clients; so the firm is always working to develop and augment their technical capabilities.
Unsurprisingly, given their global nature, another key focus of EXANTE is to offer the widest range of global assets possible. In order to avoid a messy client interface, all this takes place from a single, multi-currency account. Currently the platform offers over 600,000 different securities to trade, in a dizzying range of geographies, sectors, and asset classes. All of these products may be traded on a single account, with deposits made in any currency to facilitate clients’ local currencies. Since EXANTE does not trade on its own account or suggest securities for client purchase, the team are able to operate on an entirely neutral basis, identifying the products clients will most benefit from and offering direct market access on their flexible platform.
This EXANTE trading platform is fully compatible with MetaTrader and other third party software, allowing traders to simply transfer their activities into the new account and benefit from EXANTE’s spreads and asset choice. With only one trading account to maintain, the difficulties of monitoring a portfolio with multiple currencies and asset classes in one place are ameliorated, giving busy professional clients more time to focus on their strategy or their own clientele. EXANTE clients tend to be long term, with their 400 strong-roster funding over $2 billion in client accounts. EXANTE clients buy in to a long-term vision of what financial markets should be, a topic hotly discussed by thought leaders within the company, several of who are regular speakers and industry conferences and considered leading experts in their fields.
Founded by traders and tailored to their needs, EXANTE has a clear, defined vision of the future of global financial markets, a future they actively work to bring about. Founders and company insiders have repeatedly spoken of their ambition to fully digitise financial markets, and to provide easy cross-border transactions, allowing investors anywhere to benefit from global financial opportunities. As they guide clients towards this new reality, EXANTE continues to distinguish itself by providing top-of-the-range client privacy, with only the most essential data collected for regulatory purposes. The overall vision is to create a service that is both personalised and responsive, innovative and effective.
Since 2011, EXANTE has seen dramatic growth, expanding throughout Europe and Asia and developing a global client roster. Staff are spread across their entire footprint, providing local insight into a globalised trading platform. Clients are the ultimate beneficiaries of this expertise, whether through constant innovation in the product offering, or responsive customer service. As EXANTE continues to grow and develop, their loyal client base play a key role in shaping the future direction and fortunes of the company.
