“I am eager to help build out our repo business, offer clients new opportunities, and make Clear Street a household name for years to come.”
Commenting on the new platform, DiMartino says: “Over the next six months, we plan to scale our business and grow our client-base among institutional managers. We have ambitious goals for the business, but I am confident we will achieve them thanks to the expertise of our dedicated team.

We are seeing strong interest in repo from institutional clients, ranging from municipal pension funds to corporates.”
