Abstract:The company is exiting its forex prime brokerage business. Several Jefferies clients reportedly found alternative clearing options.
Finance Magnates understands through an as yet unconfirmed report, that Jefferies Financial Group is migrating its forex prime brokerage clients to another institution through an Introducing Brokerage (IB) relationship.
Take Advantage of the Biggest Financial Event in London. This year we have expanded to new verticals in Online Trading, Fintech, Digital Assets, Blockchain, and Payments.
The name of the institution to which it is transferring its FX prime brokerage business is, at this stage, yet to be confirmed. However, a source close to Jefferies said the US company is expected to reveal the details officially by the end of this week.
Jefferies operates from its headquarters in New York, along with offices in more than 30 cities around the world. It offers clients capital markets and financial advisory services, institutional brokerage, securities research, as well as wealth management, and asset management.
Exiting Prime Brokerage
The announcement of Jefferies shutting its prime brokerage division was first reported by Finance Magnates in March, citing unconfirmed sources. Two of the top FX Prime Brokerage executives at Jefferies, Brandon Mulvihill and Anthony Mazzarese left the company earlier this year to launch a cryptocurrency exchange, Crossover Markets.
“We are prioritizing the areas where we can best serve our clients with differentiated capabilities, and in doing so, we have decided to reduce our FX prime brokerage footprint,” a Jefferies spokesperson earlier told Bloomberg.
Additionally, earlier this year, the industry source highlighted that Jefferies already communicated to its clients about the plans to shut down the prime brokerage business. This prompted Jefferies prime brokerage clients to seek alternative clearing options. So, it will be interesting to know how many clients Jefferies is left with to migrate to the other prime brokerage, which according to unofficial estimates is less than 10 percent.

In recent years, the forex market has become a popular choice for global investors due to its high liquidity and 24-hour trading advantages. However, according to the recently concluded WikiFX "3·15 Forex Rights Protection Day " event, we received over 6,000 pieces of evidence exposing rights violations within a short period. This reflects that, although the forex industry is becoming more regulated, fraudulent platforms continue to emerge, causing significant suffering for many victims.
