Brazilian financial exchange operator B3 has accredited UK brokerage Infinox Capital to provide liquidity and to act as the sole market maker for FX futures trading contracts.
As a market maker on the world’s third largest derivatives exchange, Infinox Capital now enables Brazilian investors to trade the world’s FX and interest rate products in their home market, and without needing to send funds out of the country. The company already offers simultaneous bid and offer prices in selected securities listed on the exchange as part of its market-making services.
The latest agreement intends to further strengthen liquidity, pricing, and market depth offered to the bourse’s investors, who count over 1.5 million active accounts.
“Demand from retail investors in Brazil is booming, having grown 60-fold in the past three years. Infinox will spend the next few months measuring demand from institutional investors, banks and brokers for futures contracts,” the company said.
With the B3’s new product launch, Brazilian investors are able to trade several currencies against the US Dollar, such as GBPUSD, AUDUSD, NZDUSD, EURUSD, USDCAD, USDJPY as well as the Scandinavian pairs (USDNOK and USDSEK) and also place positions in the 10 Year US notes.
