Descriptiontext

MFEX Mutual Funds Exchange is a Stockholm-headquartered financial technology company founded in 1999 that operates an open architecture fund distribution platform connecting fund management companies with fund distributors across global markets. The platform provides end-to-end digital infrastructure for fund discovery, subscription and redemption processing, rebate management, and ongoing fund administration, with secured digital interfaces that integrate in real time with the legacy systems of custodians, banks, brokers, and wealth managers.

The company's technology stack centers on a multi-asset marketplace covering mutual funds, money market funds, alternative funds (including hedge and private market funds), and ETFs, supported by a data and analytics layer that delivers market intelligence and ESG data services. Compliance is anchored to country-specific regulatory regimes in the UK, France, and Sweden, and to CPMI-IOSCO international standards, positioning the platform as a regulated financial market infrastructure provider. The company is also investing in blockchain-based fund distribution through IZNES, signaling a forward-looking modernization of distribution rails.

MFEX serves three primary customer segments — fund management companies seeking broad distribution reach, fund distributors seeking efficient access to a diverse fund universe, and custodians requiring integration and settlement support. Its go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales with partner channels through financial institutions, supported by industry events and digital content marketing. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and the company generates revenue through platform and transaction-based fees typical of B2B financial infrastructure providers, serving 101-250 employees globally.
