Marex Launches Aggregated FX Liquidity Platform

Broker-dealer Marex has expanded its prime services capabilities with the launch of a new aggregated liquidity platform for its FX and precious metals business.

The firm says the platform gives clients access to multi-dealer FX and precious metals liquidity through a single global prime brokerage relationship, and that by combining liquidity from multiple providers into a single access point, its prime services clients can benefit from deeper liquidity, more competitive pricing, streamlined execution and seamless workflow integration, while also supporting cross-asset margin efficiencies across Marex’s broader prime brokerage platform.

At the core of the expanded offering is an aggregated pricing engine that consolidates live streams from multiple liquidity providers into a single executable price. This removes, Marex says, the need for clients to establish numerous bilateral relationships. In addition, smart-order-routing-style execution enables anonymous access to multiple liquidity pools.

Beyond execution, Marex says the platform is designed to improve capital efficiency. Through portfolio-level cross-margining, clients can benefit from improved capital usage and balance-sheet efficiency. The platform also supports integrated reporting and workflow connectivity across Marex’s broader equity, fixed income, futures and derivatives infrastructure.

“This offering strengthens our position as a cross-asset prime brokerage partner for institutional clients seeking liquidity, capital efficiency and operational simplicity,” says Massimo Labella, co-head of international prime brokerage and outsourced trading, Marex. “As with the expansion of our swaps capabilities and the addition of FX to our outsourced trading offering, it was developed in response to client demand, reflecting our focus on building solutions that deliver tangible value for clients.”
