StoneX launches securitization banking platform, expanding capital markets, lending, and structured finance services for global clients
StoneX Group Inc. has announced the launch of a new Securitization Banking, Lending & Capital Markets platform, marking a significant expansion of its structured finance and capital formation capabilities. The initiative reflects the firm’s strategic push to strengthen its presence across the institutional credit ecosystem while offering more comprehensive financial solutions to clients worldwide. Moreover, the newly introduced platform will deliver tailored capital markets solutions, enhanced lending capabilities, and access to both platform and portfolio investment opportunities.
It will also span a wide range of asset classes, allowing clients to explore diversified financing avenues. As a result, the firm aims to bridge gaps in liquidity and provide flexible financing structures across traditional and emerging asset sectors. In addition, the development builds directly on StoneX’s established fixed income sales and trading operations. By integrating market access with deep capital markets expertise, the firm intends to create a more cohesive and efficient financial ecosystem for its institutional clients.
Consequently, this move positions the company to better respond to the growing demand for innovative financing strategies in complex markets. At the same time, the platform will support a broad spectrum of global structured finance activities, including banking advisory, lending solutions, and investment opportunities. Notably, the firm will place a strong emphasis on non-traditional asset sectors, where customized structuring and flexible capital deployment often play a crucial role in unlocking value.
According to Robert Laforte, clients increasingly seek partners capable of navigating complex financing environments while identifying value across specialized asset classes. He emphasized that expanding into securitization, banking, and capital markets enables the firm to deliver more integrated and efficient financial solutions. Furthermore, StoneX has spent more than a year developing this structured finance platform, demonstrating a long-term commitment to growth in this sector. The firm has also begun actively hiring banking and analytics professionals to support the platform’s global expansion and operational scale.
To lead this initiative, the company has appointed Rob Sannicandro, who brings over two decades of experience in building banking teams at major Wall Street institutions. He will oversee the platform’s advisory, lending, and investment operations while driving strategic growth. Sannicandro noted that StoneX already possesses strong institutional connectivity, and therefore, the firm now aims to extend that foundation into structured finance by delivering disciplined and innovative financing solutions across sectors where demand continues to rise.
