Prime Brokerage & Execution

At Newedge, we strive to offer a bespoke solution that is totally focused on our customer’s needs.

We couple our global expertise across exchanges, instruments and asset classes with a detailed knowledge of hedge fund and CTA trading strategies, legal jurisdictions and structures, operational set-up and investor preferences.

Among prime brokers, Newedge is unique; we are supported by Société Générale and Calyon, but remain independently managed and regulated. Our independence from the trading activities of the two banks minimizes potential conflicts of interest.

Our clients

One of our key differences is that we extend superior levels of service to two different audiences, namely hedge fund managers and asset allocators.

Our teams have significant expertise across strategies including volatility traders, CTAs, global macro, fixed income arbitrage, equity long/short, event-driven, Shari’a-compliant and 130/30 funds. A particular strength in systematic and quant-driven strategies stems from our combination of the latest technologies, robust direct market access infrastructure and ultra-low latency market data. Our relationships with asset allocators span across fund of funds, managed account platforms, financial institutions, family offices, pension funds and insurance companies. We provide many dedicated and specialist services to asset allocators that have been developed alongside prime brokerage to hedge funds.
