SBI Securities launching equities brokerage services in the UK
“Building on our existing relationship in Hong Kong and Singapore, Broadridge has demonstrated a deep understanding of our requirements for global expansion. This has allowed us to go to market in the UK quickly and with confidence, while leveraging the benefits of the existing ASP cloud environment.”
SBI SECURITIES Co., Ltd., has announced that it is launching equities brokerage services to clients in the United Kingdom through its subsidiary SBI Shinsei International Limited.
The move is made possible thanks to a partnership with Broadridge, which will be powering the broker’s post-trade processing, the same way it has been doing with SBI Securities’ trades in Hong Kong and Singapore.
SBI Shinsei International Limited will also be leveraging Broadridge’s Swift Service Bureau to automate Swift messaging workflows with its custodian.
