We have launched an Australian-first online ordering system for corporate bonds which makes buying and selling bonds in the over-the-counter market as simple as updating an online shopping cart.
Clients and financial advisers can use the system to browse a range of bonds, access research on each bond, and place buy or sell requests at any hour of the day or night.
Head of Private Clients Grant McCorquodale said the new service was the next step in FIIG’s drive to bring the benefits of bond investment to more people.
“As Australia’s largest fixed income specialist, FIIG is committed to helping Australians secure their financial future by enabling direct investment in the fixed income market,” Mr McCorquodale said.
“As part of this mission, we have launched this online service to make it easier for our clients to place buy and sell requests for bonds.”
The new buy and sell requests service is accessed via the ‘MyFIIG’ online client portal at fiig.com.au and allows investors to search for bonds, review research, build a portfolio or select from model portfolios constructed by FIIG’s research team.
It also allows potential investors to see projected cash flows and place buy or sell requests based on indicative pricing.
Once happy with their selection, an investor can submit their requests online and their relationship manager will finalise details, including pricing, with the investor before processing the trade requests. The investor can then view open trade requests within the MyFIIG portal at any stage.
To access this new service, an investor must be a registered client who is an authorised signatory for their accounts and has a MyFIIG login.
