Britannia Global Markets

Britannia Global Markets Limited was incorporated in the UK on 6 December 1985 and operates from the City of London. The wider Britannia group says it has more than 150 years of banking history, while Global Markets describes its London presence as almost four decades old.

The firm provides brokerage and execution across exchange-traded and OTC derivatives, including commodities, foreign exchange, equity derivatives and fixed-income derivatives. Its services include execution, clearing, custody, risk management and prime arrangements for professional and institutional clients, physical hedgers, trade houses, funds and high-net-worth individuals.

Its clearest specialist strength is commodities and derivatives brokerage: Britannia cites 40 years of commodity-derivatives experience and access to options, futures and off-exchange listed swaps. Its FX operation also emphasizes electronic trading, liquidity management and execution quality, making the firm more relevant to students interested in markets, brokerage, trading infrastructure and institutional sales than in traditional investment banking or asset management.
