The past week saw the creation of a new private markets desk, as well as trader appointments across both the buy- and sell-side. 

As part of the launch, the firm has brought in two ex-Argentex Group hires to lead dealing and portfolio solutions on the desk; move comes amid “greater complexity around foreign exchange and interest rate risk throughout the investment lifecycle,” Marex tells The TRADE. 

ABN AMRO Clearing Bank, Nomura and Standard Chartered are also integrated onto the platform; Marex’s addition follows increasing institutional demand for secure, regulated access to digital assets across the industry. 

Offering combines both high and low touch trading across futures and options, rates and equities.

This past week saw a flurry of moves across the industry, including a global head of electronic trading, head of electronic fixed income, and a senior credit desk hire.

New hire has worked across the industry for more than 30 years, and also previously worked at AXA Investment Managers, Natixis Asset Management and Tradition.  

Industry experts from TP ICAP, LMAX Group, CoinShares , FalconX, Marex, Crossover Markets and BPX Digital Securities Marketplace analyse the landscape for crypto within the institutional space in the coming year, as digital assets gain traction across the industry.   

Market experts from RBC Capital Markets, Marex and Liquidnet share their outlook on the biggest factors set to shape European markets in the coming year, including the impact of changes such as single volume caps and the growth of ETFs.   

The news aligns with increasing demand for regulated crypto derivatives products for institutional clients across the industry.  

The deal is set to close in H1 2026, subject to regulatory approval, and will see Marex onboarding 700 institutional clients onto its platform.
