Notice of Completion of Acquisition of Shares of FIIG Holdings Limited by AUSIEX, an NRI Group Company

3 JUNE 2025

Nomura Research Institute, Ltd. (NRI) today announced that Australian Investment Exchange Limited (AUSIEX) has acquired 100% of the issued shares of FIIG Holdings Limited (FIIG), completing the process of making it a wholly owned subsidiary of AUSIEX.

FIIG is Australia’s largest specialist fixed income provider with over $5bn of funds under advice and provides investors with direct access to bond markets and a range of term deposits and other cash solutions.

With this transaction, AUSIEX aims to expand the range of products offered and provide services that meet a wider range of needs of institutions, family offices, financial advisers, high net worth and wholesale investors.

NRI said it aims to strengthen the business of AUSIEX and FIIG by investing in the development of new services and actively promoting partnerships with leading external vendors and to play a role in Australia's financial market infrastructure.

AUSIEX CEO Patrick Salis, says, "With this move, AUSIEX expands beyond exchange traded instruments listed on ASX & Cboe to now also include over-the-counter (OTC) domestic and international fixed income products via the FIIG platform.

“It will provide local institutions, financial advisers, family offices, SMSF and HNWIs with one of the most comprehensive investments trading and portfolio administration platform offering in the country.”

Mr Salis, adds, “This development is another sign of AUSIEX’s progress towards our long-term plan to become a market utility platform leveraging NRI’s scale and intellectual property”.

“We now look forward to discussing with market participants on how to grow the FIIG offering further through our leading trading platform.”
