Curve Securities

What Curve Securities does

Curve Securities is an Australian institutional treasury investment platform founded in 2009 and headquartered in Sydney. The company operates exclusively with wholesale clients, connecting more than 500 institutional investors — including councils, corporate treasury teams, professional asset managers, universities, foundations, charitable organisations, religious institutions, and wealth managers — with over 80 banking partners across Australia. Curve holds Australian Financial Services Licence 405751 and is ISO 27001:2022 certified, allowing it to intermediate regulated fixed-income flows under a wholesale mandate.

The company's core technology is the proprietary YieldHub platform, which aggregates term deposit, NCD, and fixed-income opportunities from the banking partner network into a single interface designed for institutional treasury workflows. YieldHub enables rate discovery, transaction execution, and portfolio management within governance and compliance frameworks. Supporting YieldHub are two additional platforms: a client-facing Portfolio Management and Rates Platform for portfolio and rate comparison, and an internal Deal Hub for transaction processing and deal management. Since inception, Curve has facilitated over 60,000 transactions and directed more than $160 billion into deposits and fixed-income securities.

Curve generates revenue through platform facilitation fees earned on transactions intermediated between institutional investors and banking partners. The go-to-market is direct enterprise sales to treasury teams across eight sector verticals, with relationship-driven acquisition rather than digital marketing. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is privately held, headquartered at Suite 1801, Level 18, 1 Bligh Street, Sydney, with 11-50 employees, and operates exclusively within Australia with no disclosed international expansion, funding rounds, acquisitions, or leadership changes in the available record.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• FIIG Securities: One of Australia's largest fixed-income specialists, providing institutional and sophisticated investors access to bond portfolios, term deposits and structured fixed-income products. Highly comparable to Curve's institutional fixed-income and deposit distribution model.
• Yieldbroker: Australian institutional fixed-income electronic trading platform for bonds and related products. Direct peer to Curve in connecting institutional investors with bank-issued and government fixed-income, though more focused on secondary market trading vs. Curve's primary issuance focus.

Emerging players

• Trovata: Cloud-based cash management and treasury analytics platform for corporates, enabling direct multi-bank visibility. Comparable to Curve's client-facing Portfolio Management and Rates Platform for corporate treasury teams, though more SaaS-led than brokerage-led.
• Debtbook: Specialised debt management and treasury software for US governments and non-profits, including investment portfolio management. Closely comparable to Curve's council, foundation and NFP treasury use cases from a workflow perspective.

Broad incumbents

• Kyriba: Global leader in cloud treasury and finance solutions for large enterprises, including cash positioning, bank connectivity and investment management. Overlaps with Curve's corporate treasury and institutional funds workflows but at much larger enterprise scale.
• Bell Potter: Australian full-service wealth and institutional broker with fixed-income and corporate advisory capabilities. Competes for institutional fixed-income wallet share alongside Curve, though as part of a broader diversified financial services franchise.
• Treasury Intelligence Solutions (TIS): Enterprise platform for bank connectivity, cash management, payments and treasury workflows for large corporates. Overlaps with Curve's institutional treasury workflow focus and competes for the same corporate and asset manager buyers.
• GTreasury: Long-standing corporate treasury management platform with cash visibility, bank reporting and payments modules. Comparable to Curve in serving corporate treasury teams but as a broad SaaS incumbent rather than an Australian deposit marketplace.

Regional players

• ZSuite Technologies: US-focused term deposit and CD platform for community banks and their corporate/institutional depositors. Comparable business model of digitising institutional deposit placement through a multi-bank marketplace, though operating in US markets rather than Australia.
• OpenMarkets: Australian institutional and retail brokerage platform providing market access and trading infrastructure. Comparable as an Australian institutional intermediary, though more focused on equities and exchange-traded products than fixed-income.
