AUSIEX partners with Saxo Australia on trading solution
AUSIEX has partnered with Saxo Australia to deliver an integrated trading solution for financial advisers.
This will allow advisers to directly trade and own international equities and ETFs across multiple markets.
AUSIEX supports more than 4,500 advisers from over 850 advice firms and said the partnership with Saxo will help advisers to better service their investors, strengthen their client proposition and improve practice efficiencies.
Chief executive, Patrick Salis, said: “After an extensive search, we are delighted to announce we are collaborating with Saxo, a global leader in international trading solutions, to leverage their proven technology and domain expertise and jointly deliver a highly scalable, ‘best of breed’ international trading solution for advisers.”
“Our aim is to complement and enhance our capabilities as a proven wholesale trading platform, and ensure it continues to be a leading solution for advisers, brokers and self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs) by not only enabling advisers to trade international equities alongside domestic securities, but also benefit from integrated news and research, trading tools and reporting capabilities.”
Saxo Australia chief executive, Adam Smith, said: “Saxo Australia is delighted to support AUSIEX’s expansion into international equities markets. Like AUSIEX, Saxo Australia is an Australian broker backed by a global financial powerhouse, and we anticipate this being the start of a long and fruitful partnership.”
“It’s never been more important for investors to diversify their holdings across geographic regions and asset classes. Saxo Australia’s partnership with AUSIEX will enable financial advisers to do just that for their clients, using market-leading, user-friendly investment technology and infrastructure.”
Saxo Australia is a subsidiary of Saxo Bank, an international investment firm with over 30 years’ experience in financial markets and over a million clients worldwide. The firm has been operating in Australia since 2012.
