Mizuho Bank has joined Singapore Exchange’s foreign exchange trading platform, adding another major financial institution to the SGX FX ecosystem as the platform expands its global reach.

Mizuho Bank Partners with SGX FX Trading Platform

The Japanese bank started streaming its prices on SGX FX in June 2025, bringing its pricing capabilities to the Singapore-based platform’s network of traders and financial institutions worldwide.

The collaboration gives SGX FX access to Mizuho’s pricing data while providing the Japanese bank’s clients with another avenue to access foreign exchange markets. Both companies say the partnership will boost liquidity and transparency for traders using the platform.

“We are excited to join forces with SGX FX and further penetrate FX global markets,” said Takumi Okubo, Deputy General Manager for EFX Sales at Mizuho Bank. “By streaming our prices on SGX FX, we aim to offer our clients enhanced service and unprecedented access to real-time market data.”

For the SGX it marks another cooperation in the last month, after the operator partnered with Brazil’s B3 stock exchange to launch Brazilian Real futures contracts, creating the first Forex (FX) trading corridor between Singapore and Brazil.

“We Can Elevate the FX trading Experience”

Mizuho Bank ranks as Japan’s second-largest bank by assets and operates across 36 countries with more than 850 offices globally. The bank’s parent company, Mizuho Financial Group, holds approximately $2 trillion in total assets, making it the world’s 17th largest bank according to S&P Global’s 2024 rankings.

SGX FX operates as the foreign exchange arm of Singapore Exchange, one of Asia’s major financial market operators. The platform connects banks, institutional investors, and other market participants for currency trading.

Jean-Philippe Malé, CEO of SGX FX, welcomed the addition of Mizuho to the platform. “Partnering with Mizuho Bank aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver exceptional market access,” Malé said. “Together, we can elevate the FX trading experience and foster greater market participation.”

Both companies indicated they plan to explore additional opportunities for collaboration beyond the current price-streaming arrangement, though they provided no specific details about future initiatives.
