Clear Street’s first product is its equity finance platform, which processes more than $15 billion in trades every day. The firm’s goal is to create a single-source platform to serve all investor types across all asset classes globally.

Clear Street provides a wide array of securities financing solutions. The business is led by a veteran team of industry professionals and supported by modern technology that leverages our extensive distribution channels and market knowledge to support the financing and liquidity needs of our clients.
