“It is an exciting time here at iSAM Securities, as much of our planning and preparation is due to bear fruit in 2024.”
iSAM Securities (UK) Limited has submitted its 2023 financial results, reporting a turnover of £31.6m for y/e June 2023 (£35.0m 2022).
In a slightly subdued trading environment for the UK entity of the group, executives at the UK entity of multi-billion dollar hedge fund iSAM Group’s trading division, iSAM Securities, have shown excitement about the future of the firm after a multi-million dollar investment and plans to expand its prime brokerage business globally.
“It is an exciting time here at iSAM Securities”
Sam Johnson, Managing Director of iSAM Securities, said: “2023 saw significant strides forward in our offering, part of a multi-million dollar investment program in personnel and infrastructure. It is an exciting time here at iSAM Securities, as much of our planning and preparation is due to bear fruit in 2024. Our liquidity provision business is set to see a major shift as we realize our long-held ambition to globalize our client-centric business and unlock a much greater client base for iSAM Securities.”
“Added to this, we will see significant increases in our product set, having listened to our clients’ needs and delivered on those solutions. When combined with the launch of our ground-breaking risk share model, Parallax – itself a significant upgrade to the traditional methodology in terms of transparency and integrity – we’ll be able to meet our clients’ needs on every level.
“In concert with the liquidity updates, we will also see our technology offering reap the rewards of a multi-year investment program as we see our APEX liquidity bridge benefit from major upgrades to which we will add RADAR, our retail brokerage focused analytics suite. When combined with a synergistic approach to pricing for those services, it will make for a powerful and compelling solution for our client base.”
