What StoneX does

Global financial services firm providing commodities brokerage, trading execution and market access to institutions.

Earns small commissions and trading spreads on a very large volume of trades, plus interest on client cash it holds, so market activity and interest rates both matter. It acts as principal in physical commodities and foreign exchange, which inflates gross sales well beyond what it keeps. Formerly INTL FCStone.

Products and services

  • Commercial/institutional brokerage
  • Global payments
  • Securities/derivatives clearing
  • Retail trading (self-directed)

Customers

  • Agricultural/commodity producers
  • Institutional traders
  • Banks/corporates (payments)

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Financial services
  • Commodities & financial brokerage
  • Execution, clearing & advisory

What could go right

  • Commodity market volatility drives volumes
  • Cross-sell across brokerage/payments/clearing

What could go wrong

  • Trading-volume dependent revenue
  • Credit risk from client commodity positions

Moat: narrow (scale, distribution, process know-how). Broad multi-asset network and physical commodities expertise are hard for smaller brokers to match.
