Technology

At IMC, technology is not a department; it is at the heart of everything we do. Our technologists push the limits of possibility and then look beyond. In our fast-paced environment, short feedback loops mean projects worked on in the morning can enter production the next day.

Trading

Although our traders come from many backgrounds, they all have one thing in common: they are at their best solving complex problems. Their insight into global events, market shifts, and pricing ensure we are trading in the right place, at the right time.
