Marex Group Expands Reach With Valcourt Acquisition, boosting fixed income business and strengthening presence in Swiss markets.
Marex Group plc’s acquisition of Geneva-based fixed income market maker Valcourt SA strategically expands its specialist debt capabilities and strengthens its distribution network to the Swiss institutional community.
Valcourt specializes in fixed income instruments such as high-yield, subordinated, emerging markets, private, illiquid, and sustainable debt. Moreover, the acquisition will bring 700 new clients, including banks, independent wealth managers, and asset managers, to Marex’s growing network.
Through this acquisition, Marex aims to enhance its distribution capabilities and deepen its reach within the Swiss institutional community. The move aligns with Marex’s broader strategy to diversify earnings by adding new clients and capabilities to its platform. Regulators must approve the deal, and Marex expects to close it in the first half of 2026.
Paolo Tonucci, Chief Strategist and CEO of Capital Markets at Marex, stated, “We are excited to welcome the team from Valcourt to Marex. They bring a high level of expertise in the fixed income markets and will enhance our Capital Markets offering.” He further emphasized that “the acquisition also brings us deep local knowledge and strong client relationships, particularly with Swiss institutions, where we see great potential to deepen these relationships by offering access to our broader range of products from across our platform.”
Meanwhile, Mike Conway, CEO of Valcourt, expressed optimism about the partnership, saying, “We are delighted to join forces with Marex, a global leader in financial services. This partnership represents a fantastic opportunity for Valcourt clients to access Marex’s extensive network and expertise.” He added that “we look forward to combining our strengths and delivering even greater value to our clients.”
Ultimately, the acquisition highlights Marex’s commitment to expanding its global footprint and enhancing its service offerings in the competitive fixed income space. As both firms prepare for integration, the deal underscores a shared vision of growth and innovation within the international financial markets, further solidifying Marex’s position as a major player in the sector.
