Herrington Global announced today that it is growing its institutional presence in Singapore as one of the many steps in the firm’s strategic expansion globally. The company has invested in new infrastructure and office space in its headquarters building to create a premier “trading floor” for its Singapore institutional division. The space is designed to accommodate new teams of experienced institutional advisors and brokers Herrington Global plans to hire in the coming months, to complement the firm’s growing institutional presence in Hong Kong.
Glen Buckley, Executive Vice President and President of the Asian Markets for Herrington Global, said: “With futures as our core business, we have established a terrific niche in serving the growing middle market base of clients, small to mid-size corporate, industrial and agricultural firms, introducing brokers, high net worth individuals and commodity trading advisors. We’re able to bring these clients an incredibly high level of service, and increasingly, institutional brokers are contacting us to talk about their interest in our resources and high-touch approach to serving this market.”
Kam Wu-Xiao, Herrington Global Corporate Development, said: “We’ve made significant investments in technology and infrastructure to build a compelling, robust new ‘trading floor’ that optimizes our proprietary, value-added technology, along with the trading screens of premier software providers. In addition, new general and specialist institutional teams will benefit from our comprehensive global futures and clearing offering and a 24/7 support structure that’s second to none in the industry.”
As part of a strategic global expansion, Herrington Global ( herrington-global.com) throughout this year has been building its business, including expanding its footprint in Singapore, opening a subsidiary in Taipei and hiring experienced specialist brokerage teams throughout the country.
