International Financial Data Services is a joint venture between affiliates of Boston-based State Street Corporation, the world’s leading provider of services to institutional investors, and DST Systems Inc., a Kansas City, Missouri-based leading provider of shareholder accounting services and proprietary systems. Both organisations have over 40 years’ experience and joint venture track record via our sister company in the US, Boston Financial Data Services (BFDS). Together we form part of the world’s largest investor record-keeping / transfer agency services provider. DST and State Street formed their first joint venture – BFDS - in 1973, with Canada Financial Data Services (CFDS) and European Financial Data Services (EFDS) entering the UK and Canadian markets in 1995. During 2001 we rebranded to International Financial Data Services, helping to align our business globally. Throughout the early part of the century our operations and footprint continued to expand, taking control of State Street’s established transfer agency services in Ireland and Luxembourg in 2007, meaning further integration of our European operations. As a family, we are now the largest administration and technology outsource provider in Canada, the UK and the USA respectively, with our market share continuing to grow throughout the rest of Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. No other supplier has such as focus on the industry, nor has anyone this level of global reach.

The Makor Group is an international brokerage firm established in March 2011 by Michael Halimi and Avi Bouhadana, two ex-senior managers at Cantor Fitzgerald Europe.

Makor provides its clients with original and innovative trading ideas specializing in risk arbitrage, special situations, relative value and event-driven opportunities for clients and regularly ranks in the Top 3 of the Thomson Reuters EXTEL risk-arb research surveys. Makor acts only as an agent and is therefore not susceptible to the various conflicts in the industry. Makor takes no proprietary positions and as such acts wholly and exclusively for the benefit of the client. Makor`s understanding of local markets and extensive client relationships built over 30 years industry experience, allows it to tap into local institutional portfolios in order to maximize liquidity for clients. Besides the client relationships Makor has strong relationships with global custodians and prime brokers. These international custodians, which provide essential services across all asset classes, are the oil that keeps the trading engine running smoothly. Prime brokerage services including custody and trade settlement are as important to the clients as the execution itself and in some cases even more important. Settlement of trading activity needs to be timely and problem free.
