Straits Financial Deepens Partnership with Integral to Boost FX and Precious Metals Trading in Asia

Subscribe to our newsletter

Straits Financial Services Pte Ltd (SFSPL), the Singapore-based brokerage, is enhancing its collaboration with currency technology provider Integral to strengthen client services and expand operations across Asia’s FX and precious metals markets. This includes extending its infrastructure to the SG1 data centre in Singapore, aiming to improve execution quality and liquidity for a wider range of instruments, including gold, silver, platinum, and palladium.

The expanded use of Integral’s API-based technology is intended to support more efficient integration with external systems and enhance pricing capabilities. With increasing trading activity in gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, the updated system allows for unit conversions commonly used in the region and facilitates pricing in local currencies. SFSPL first adopted Integral’s technology in 2019 and now uses it for trading, liquidity aggregation, pricing, risk management, and white labelling across its product offering.
