Who we are

RESEARCH. TECHNOLOGY. TRADING.

Ten global offices. Seventy-plus nationalities. One trading culture.

At IMC, speed is the baseline, infrastructure is the multiplier, and research is the edge. Researchers develop the models. Traders shape the strategy. Engineers build the technology that brings ideas into execution at speed. Research drives where we go - new markets, new alpha, new edge.

Since 1989

Trading floors once ran on hand signals and shouted orders. Then electronic trading changed everything. IMC built its own automated trading systems, becoming one of the first firms in the industry to do it. What began as fast, precise trade execution, filling orders in the market at speed and scale, has grown into research-led risk-taking across multiple asset classes and trading hubs, providing 24/7 liquidity.

Our ambition

TO BE THE WORLD’S LEADING TRADING FIRM

We will build our success on world-class pricing, the most robust trading strategies, and harnessing quant research to generate alpha.

Our history

FOCUSED ON THE FUTURE, BUILDING ON OUR PAST

IMC was founded all the way back in 1989 by two traders working together on the floor of the Amsterdam Equity Options Exchange.

We were one of the first major firms to recognize the potential of technology. Today, we continue to be one of the first adopters of new tech applications as we expand across new markets and asset classes.
