Next Securities said on the 2nd that it signed a strategic agreement with U.S. full-service securities firm Siebert (SIEB). Next Securities will use this agreement as a springboard to accelerate its entry into the U.S. market.
Siebert is a full-service securities firm based in the United States that provides a range of financial services, including brokerage, investment advisory, and asset management. It has been operating as a member firm since 1967, when founder Muriel Siebert became the first female member of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the head of a member firm.
Next Securities said it expects to create synergy by combining its artificial intelligence (AI)- and content-based platform technology with Siebert's more than 50 years of financial infrastructure and U.S. local network. The two companies also plan to discuss ways to provide global investors with trading convenience and high-quality content.
John J. Gebbia, CEO of Siebert, said, "This agreement is an important milestone in Siebert's evolution," and added, "We look forward to working with Next Securities to elevate Siebert's platform to the next level and pursue new growth opportunities through AI-driven innovation."
Kim Seung-yeon, CEO of Next Securities, said, "This is an important starting point to accelerate Next Securities' entry into the U.S. market," and added, "By combining Next Securities' technology with Siebert's financial infrastructure capabilities, we will deliver new value to the U.S. financial market."
Next Securities is preparing to launch a new mobile trading system (MTS) in the first half of 2026, while also speeding up its U.S. business by establishing the local U.S. subsidiary "Next Market (Next Markets Corp.)".
