Lloyds, one of the UK’s largest financial institutions with a long‑established FX franchise, provides balance‑sheet backed liquidity supported by sustained investments in electronic distribution, analytics and data‑driven execution. Its strong presence in major currencies, including GBP and key Commonwealth pairs, adds meaningful depth for macro hedge funds, banks and asset managers trading across global sessions.

SGX FX offers institutional clients deep liquidity across Spot, NDFs, Outrights and Swaps – combining best‑in‑class UI trading, robust API connectivity and multiple execution methods. The platform emphasises data‑driven insights and analytics to help clients assess liquidity, optimise execution strategies, and enhance decision‑making across time zones.

Lloyds’ participation further enhances price formation on SGX FX, particularly in markets central to both directional and hedging strategies, reinforcing a transparent, competitive and resilient liquidity environment.

“SGX FX is focused on delivering high‑quality execution supported by deep liquidity and advanced analytics,” said Hugh Whelan, Head of Liquidity Management and Data at SGX FX. “Lloyds brings meaningful balance‑sheet backed liquidity and market expertise that strengthens price formation across our platform and supports better trading outcomes globally.”
