Apex Group, a global financial services provider, has announced the launch of its Private Intermittent Securities and Capital Exchange System (PISCES) suite of services.
This will include trade fulfilment as a Registered Auction Agent (RAA) on the London Stock Exchange’s Private Securities Market, operating under the PISCES framework.
PISCES enables the intermittent trading of secondary shares in private companies, helping private equity managers, corporates, founders, and employees access liquidity without requiring a full company sale.
Marcus Stuttard, head of UK Primary Markets and AIM, London Stock Exchange, notes: "We are delighted to be welcoming Apex Group to our Private Securities Market as a Registered Auction Agent.
“By leveraging Apex Group’s extensive reach across private markets, we look forward to providing companies with a greater range of options to build and evolve their shareholder base, while enabling current investors to benefit from increased liquidity in their shares and giving new investors the opportunity to invest in the next generation of high growth companies.”
Stephen Geddes, head of UK Corporate Oversight and Strategic Advisory at Apex Group, adds: “With the introduction of PISCES, Apex Group is providing corporates and private equity managers with everything they need to unlock liquidity on the London Stock Exchange’s new Private Securities Market.”
