NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 02/10/17 --
INTL FCStone Inc. (NASDAQ: INTL) today announced that the Broker-Dealer Rates Group of its wholly owned subsidiary, INTL FCStone Financial Inc. ("the Company"), has formed a Securitized Products Group in order to enhance its already successful Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities operations.

expert insight in these markets.
The Securitized Products Group supports INTL FCStone Financial's dedication to providing dealer and market maker services to buy-side clients. Its formation strengthens the Company's ongoing efforts across Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities, Collateralized Mortgage Obligations, Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities, and Asset-Backed Securities.
Anthony Di Ciollo, Senior Managing Director, Head of Securitized Trading at the Broker-Dealer Rates Group of INTL FCStone Financial Inc., commented on today's news, "The buy-side has experienced a dramatic change in coverage as the majority of securities industry participants trend towards generalization and divert resources away from traditional Mortgage products, which negatively impacts market liquidity.
