trademakers is a proprietary, digital-first, investment management platform developed by Sterling Gent Trading Ltd (SGT Markets). trademakers has been built from the ground up for established and emerging investment managers, providing a low cost, highly efficient structure for managed money – in short, a synthetic hedge fund.

Sterling Gent Trading (SGT) is a trading and investment specialist, regulated by the FSC since 2011. SGT provides liquidity and market access to managers and traders on trademakers.

As Investment Advisor to trademakers on all strategies both private and public platforms (more on that later), JPFS carries out due diligence on each manager and trading strategy seeking to join trademakers.

trademakers is a branded fintech platform, 100% owned and operated by SGT Markets. trademakers is SaaS, delivering the benefits of a hedge fund without the time, costs, legal and financial burdens of a traditional fund.

A 'TM' is the name of the investment wrapper inside trademakers and its currency denomination, e.g. ABCUSD. The TM is the smart tech that replicates the performance of the underlying trading strategy and fractionalises, giving managers on trademakers access to a much wider pool of investors than previously possible with a traditional fund.

The legal counterparty for both managers and traders and their clients is Sterling Gent Trading Ltd (“SGT Markets”), a BVI domiciled firm, regulated by the FSC and licenced since 2011.

No. Investors open an account with SGT Markets which owns and operates trademakers. SGT onboards all clients, including all applicable KYC/AML procedures. Clients simply invest in a manager’s strategy by buying the TM for that strategy.

Yes, managers and traders can request exclusivity (to be the only introducer of clients to their own trading strategy). In this case, the manager would retain the investor data/relationships, and the trading strategy would be placed in trademakers private, instead of trademakers public.

The trademakers platform can be either public or private. trademakers private is a closed environment which is only accessible to the manager’s clients and introductions, and not visible to the general public. Trading strategies on trademakers public by contrast are visible to all visitors and can be invested in by any client with an SGT account.

Investor funds would remain on account with SGT Markets in the investor’s name as the legal custodian of all client deposits. Clients may withdraw unallocated funds from their account at any time, or they can redeem investments in a strategy and then withdraw these funds from their account. In the event of any material change of circumstances, clients will be informed in advance and provided with their options for redemption/withdrawal as applicable.

The custodian of client/investor funds is Sterling Gent Trading Ltd (SGT Markets), regulated under the FSC since 2011.

$50,000 is our benchmark minimum account size. However, as part of the onboarding process, SGT works with each client to assess their expected trading activity and operational requirements in order to determine an appropriate initial funding level. Funding requirements may also vary over time based on trading patterns, market conditions, margin obligations, and risk exposure.

Accordingly, the required account balance should be considered on a case-by-case basis rather than as a predetermined minimum amount. Prospective clients are encouraged to discuss their anticipated business model and trading objectives with SGT to determine the most suitable funding arrangement.
