Tigress Financial Partners has entered into a strategic partnership with BCS Global Markets to jointly offer access to capital markets, investment banking, credit facilities, research, asset management and global wealth management services to institutional clients in the US and global markets.
As part of the transaction BCS UK invested directly in Tigress, in addition to injecting regulatory capital into the broker dealer.
According to Tigress, the strength of BCS in international origination, international trade execution, and a multi-country distribution network enhances its access to global markets.
In addition, as a women-owned broker-dealer, Tigress brings diversity to the BCS Group Companies, along with the ability to expand domestic US capital markets and investment banking relationships.
Cynthia DiBartolo, chairman and CEO of Tigress Financial Partners, said: “It is our distinct privilege to be associated with BCS Global Markets. The ability to leverage a stronger regulatory capital position combined with the unique transactional access we bring as a women-owned firm, together with international breadth and depth of BCS Global Markets will benefit both firms immensely.”
She added: “This extraordinary partnership also allows Tigress to instantly expand to an international trade platform, as well as introduce competitive BCS Global Markets’ credit facilities and high-end solutions to our institutional and corporate clients.”
Gary Esayian, CEO of BCS Americas, said: “BCS Global Markets team is looking forward to aligning with Tigress Financial Partners.”
He added: “We value diversity and working closely with Tigress Financial Partners will accelerate our US capital markets agenda and allow our international professionals access to Tigress Financial Partners, proprietary high-quality institutional research, along with streamlined access to the Tigress Asset Management and the robust Tigress Offshore Platform.”
Bradley Duke, CEO of BCS Prime Brokerage Limited, said: “BCS Global Markets has a powerful international platform that will be enhanced by our relationship with Tigress Financial Partners.”
“The strengths we each bring to the table and the working relationship between our respective highly skilled industry professionals will allow us each to expand our product offerings for the benefit of our clients around the world.”
