Macquarie prides itself on being a commodity and emerging market (EM) specialist, with a deep footprint across EM and commodity-producing countries globally.

Market leader

Deal-driven FX flows

Commodity-related and idiosyncratic deal-driven FX flows underpin day-to-day FX trading activities

Unique liquidity

Daily FX volumes in G10 and EM are substantially driven by our unique liquidity profile. Macquarie internalises FX risks to match off-balance sheet, inventory, and client flows efficiently

Our FX business has a track record of expertise in commodity-linked currencies, both in G10 and EM. This is built on robust links to commodity-specific corporations and Macquarie capital allocation into the commodity industry.
