Asia's institutional markets
Our story

The DNA of Modern Institutional Markets

Every market has a genetic code. Asia's institutional markets carry immense value, but the infrastructure connecting them hasn't kept pace. We are rewriting that code—so data, networks and access move as fast as the region does. Here's that story.

Our DNA

Infrastructure that Enables

Marketnode is Asia-Pacific’s digital market infrastructure operator, backed by Euroclear, HSBC, SGX Group and Temasek. We build infrastructure across data, networks, and access—helping institutions transform workflows, move transactions and bring products to market.

We began as a collaboration between SGX Group and Temasek to reimagine how institutional markets could operate on digital infrastructure. Today, with the support of our strategic backers and partners, Marketnode is building the data, network and access layers behind faster, more connected financial markets.
