Innovative brokerage and trading technology solutions provider Divisa Capital just announced US$100 million of funding from an investor in the Gulf region, subject to regulatory approvals.
The funding is comprised of an initial tranche of US$70 million from the principal behind a Saudi Arabian family office. Additional tranches from a consortium of investors in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are expected to be completed later in 2017, subject to regulatory approvals, giving Divisa Capital over US$100 million in cash to fund its long-term expansion plans.
Divisa Capital will use the new funds to boost its Prime Brokerage relationships and other bilateral partnerships offering clients enhanced liquidity along with introducing new products and services.
