About IMC financial markets

Talent meets technology

IMC financial markets is one of the world’s leading proprietary trading firms and a key market maker in various products listed on exchanges throughout the world.

Broadly, our main strategies can be grouped into:

  • Market Making or Liquidity providing
  • Algorithmic arbitrage
  • Statistical arbitrage

All of our strategies are proprietary and within IMC financial markets we do not have any external clients. All strategies have a short-term horizon and are considered as ‘high frequency trading’.

Our success is based on a unique combination of talents and technology, with interaction between specialists such as traders, quants, IT specialists, and business analysts. This enables us to:

  • continuously improve existing strategies, infrastructure, algorithms and software
  • create the new strategies necessary to stay ahead of our competition.

All our most important trading systems and software are developed in-house. This includes real time market risk management tools that can be used in every market, as well as models that closely monitor our exposure to the various risks.
