Corpoate Profile

ODL Securities Limited (ODLS) was originally founded in 1994 as Options Direct (Europe) Ltd in response to a movement away from the “open outcry” system of trading on the LIFFE derivative products market. The Company believed that the future for trading financial instruments would be screen based and the use of technology would be a major factor in the development of the financial markets.

The Company obtained its trading licence at the end of 1994 and commenced trading early in 1995. Initially it specialised in derivatives and equities but recently has seen significant growth in foreign exchange, equity CFDs, Corporate and Government bond trading and other over-the-counter (OTC) products.

ODLS has a Corporate Finance department that specialises in the resource and mining sectors. Its principal activities are raising funds in the initial stages of financing through private placements and the IPO market.

We have some of the widest ranging and most technologically advanced resources in our industry and through our growing international network of offices (U.S.A, Italy and Japan are established, with China opening in the near future) we are able to meet our customers' needs virtually anywhere in the world, 24/7 in a range of languages.

We offer an extensive range of foreign exchange, derivative, equity, commodity and fixed income products for retail & corporate clients, financial institutions, fund managers, introducing brokers and agents
