The Newedge DifferenceNewedge is a new leader in global brokerage. We combine a broad, multi-asset product offering and access to global exchanges with a solid balance sheet and the support of two highly rated parent banks. We enjoy an independent management and regulatory structure, allowing us to focus on the needs of our customers. Formed by Société Générale and Calyon, as a 50/50 joint venture, Newedge combines the knowledge and experience of two well established brokerage firms, Calyon Financial and Fimat. With a strong governance structure and operating model, Newedge acts as an impartial partner, enabling us to minimize conflicts of interest while supporting our position as an independent player in the brokerage world.
