Bgc Group, Inc.
A global financial brokerage and technology company that sits in the "plumbing" of the markets, helping banks, hedge funds, and investment firms trade everything from bonds and interest-rate swaps to energy and shipping. It was born in 2004 when Cantor Fitzgerald spun off its voice-brokerage business, and its name honors Cantor co-founder Bernard Gerald Cantor. In 2023 it launched FMX, a U.S. interest-rate futures exchange built in partnership with ten major banks and trading firms.
