After obtaining approval from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), Clear Street, a cloud-native financial technology company that is committed to modernizing the brokerage ecosystem, has officially launched Clear Street UK. This expansion marks a significant milestone in the company’s international growth strategy, targeting the UK as a gateway to European and global markets. Clear Street UK has also been approved as a Category 1, Ring-dealing member by the London Metal Exchange (LME), granting the company direct access to the LME’s trading floor, electronic platforms, and inter-office markets. This membership places Clear Street among an elite group authorized to execute trades, issue contracts, and access global reference prices for industrial metals, further strengthening its position in the market.
Jacinda Fahey, CEO of Clear Street UK and Europe, highlighted the UK’s strategic importance as a bridge to Europe, citing its robust regulatory framework and vast institutional investor base. The firm’s technology-driven approach has already demonstrated success in the U.S., and the UK launch, supported by a dedicated London-based team, aims to replicate this momentum across EMEA and beyond. Clear Street continues to advance its vision of providing a unified platform for trading all asset classes globally, empowering institutional clients with real-time data and advanced technology.
