CHICAGO, March 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Top Third Ag
Marketing, a full-service introducing broker dedicated to helping
farmers manage risk, has unveiled its new brand and service
offerings following its acquisition last year by StoneX Group Inc.
(NASDAQ: SNEX).
Top Third has unveiled its new brand and service offerings
following its acquisition by StoneX Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SNEX)
"Our mission to serve the American farmer guides us every day,''
said Top Third Founder and Managing Director Mark Gold. "In the spirit and continued
fulfillment of this mission, our one-on-one broker relationships
remain the same, and I will continue to be fully engaged and
working closely with our team. I believe this new direction will be
an opportunity to enhance marketing opportunities in a positive
way, as our clients have access to many more marketing tools and
resources through the StoneX brand."
StoneX finalized the acquisition of GAIN Capital Holdings, Inc.
(NYSE: GCAP) and its subsidiary company, Global Asset Advisors, LLC
(GAA), last year. GAA brands Top Third Ag Marketing, Daniels
Trading and Futures Online are now part of the StoneX global
financial services network.
"This is an exciting time for both StoneX and Top Third," said
StoneX CEO Sean O'Connor. "StoneX is
furthering its commitment to serving the agricultural commodity
trading space and is well positioned to pursue a new customer
segment within that space. Top Third, a respected brand among
American farmers, has always pursued a relationship-focused,
customer-first approach, which aligns with our commitment to
providing hands-on client service. Top Third will significantly
enhance StoneX's ability to provide risk management expertise to
the agricultural industry — from family-owned businesses to large
corporations — offering the personalized assistance they need to be
successful."
StoneX provides institutional access to 36 derivative exchanges,
175 foreign exchange markets, nearly every global securities
marketplace and a number of bilateral liquidity venues.
Additionally, StoneX offers retail market access via FOREX.com and
City Index, among other platforms.
For Top Third clients, StoneX offers a unique set of
capabilities beyond the comprehensive market access described
above. These include assistance in developing integrated risk
management strategies, a robust and fully digital global market
intelligence platform, and access to highly customizable
over-the-counter (OTC) swaps and structured products typically
available only through large international banks.
Top Third clients will also have access to physical commodity
capabilities that include inventory financing, logistics support
and margin-free merchandising programs, including the company's
flagship managed bushels program, Merchants Plus (M+).
As part of its integration into StoneX, Top Third recently
introduced a new company logo that creates a stronger visual
connection between the two brands. This new look will be integrated
into all Top Third communications going forward. In addition, all
Top Third employees and brokers are now using StoneX-branded
emails. The new email address style will generally be
firstname.lastname@stonex.com, and emails to the current
topthird.com addresses will be forwarded. The company website,
https://www.topthird.com/, will remain the same for now, but will
eventually transition to StoneX.com.
