We Open Markets
A diversied, global nancial services organization, INTL FCStone Inc. provides
nancial products and advisory and execution services to help our clients access
market liquidity, maximize prots and manage risk.
Our history and culture of innovation allows us to
provide the maximum exibility and options for our
customers, and supports our leadership in complex
markets and businesses around the world. We excel
in opening markets for under-served mid-market
clients, including small and mid-sized clients
seeking insights and guidance, as well as larger
institutions seeking access to niche markets.
We are a leader in the development of specialized
nancial services in commodities, securities,
global payments, foreign exchange and other
markets. We create added value for our clients by
providing access to global nancial markets using
our industry and nancial expertise, deep partner
and network relationships, insight and guidance,
and integrity and transparency. Our client-rst
approach differentiates us from large banking
institutions, engenders trust, and has enabled us
to establish leadership positions in a number of
complex elds in nancial markets around the
world.
A well-capitalized and regulatory compliant
organization, our businesses are supported by
our global infrastructure of regulated operating
subsidiaries, advanced technology platform and
team of more than 1,100 employees. We currently
maintain more than 20,000 accounts representing
approximately 11,000 clients, located in more than
135 countries.
Our clients include producers, processors and
end-users of nearly all widely traded physical
commodities; commercial counterparties
who are end-users of our products and
services; governmental and non-governmental
organizations; and commercial banks, brokers,
institutional investors and major investment banks.
Our opportunities vary from mid-sized commercial
entities’ need for more sophisticated risk
management as exposure to markets increases, to
emerging markets looking for more comprehensive
access to international futures and securities
exchanges. Our customer-centric approach tends
to lead to long-term customer relationships and
annuity-like revenue for the company.
