StoneX Deepens Singapore Infrastructure With Integral at Equinix SG1

Currency technology provider Integral has expanded its longstanding partnership with global financial services firm StoneX Group to establish connectivity at the Equinix SG1 data facility in Singapore, strengthening StoneX's ability to serve clients across the Asia Pacific region.

The local deployment is designed to improve StoneX's access to liquidity in key asset classes, including foreign exchange and precious metals, while cutting latency and lifting trading efficiency for clients operating across Asia's fast-growing markets. StoneX already draws on Integral's presence at Equinix's New York (NY4) and London (LD4) facilities, and the Singapore addition lets the firm tap liquidity hosted in SG1 directly, removing cross-region latency and improving real-time data delivery.

Why Singapore, and why now

The timing tracks a market that has been pulling away from the rest of Asia. Singapore's average daily FX turnover reached USD$1.485 trillion in April 2025, up 60 per cent on 2022, according to figures the Monetary Authority of Singapore drew from the Bank for International Settlements' latest triennial survey. That keeps the city-state the third largest FX centre in the world behind the UK and the US, and comfortably the largest in Asia Pacific, with close to 12 per cent of global volumes. For firms serving regional clients, this scale increasingly demands infrastructure close to clients in the region, rather than routed in from elsewhere.

Gerard Melia, ( @gerardma8c4a ) Global Head of FX Sales at StoneX, said: "By extending our infrastructure in Singapore, we are improving our ability to serve clients in one of the world's fastest-growing financial markets. In a region where speed and access to liquidity are critical, our partnership with Integral enables us to deliver the low-latency performance, agility and reliability our clients depend on."

Building on a tripled SG1 footprint

The expansion follows Integral's own recent build-out at SG1, where the company tripled capacity to meet rising demand. Integral now processes more than one million tickets a day at the facility and services a broad regional client base, which it says gives global clients like StoneX the scale, reliability and efficiency needed to grow in the region.

Harpal Sandhu, ( @harpalsacc5f ) Chief Executive Officer at Integral, commented: "This expansion is a deepening of our longstanding relationship with StoneX, which spans over 15 years, and reflects the trust that global institutions place in our solutions. Extending its presence in Singapore will multiply the benefits that connectivity to Integral's platform brings across StoneX's FX and precious metals operations, facilitating faster, more streamlined access to regional liquidity."
