What AURUM does

Aurum Valores SA, operating as AURUM, is a Buenos Aires-headquartered financial services firm registered with Argentina's Comisión Nacional de Valores (CNV) as an Agente de Liquidación y Compensación y Agente de Negociación Propia (ALyC y AN Propio N° 565) and as an Agente de Colocación y Distribución Integral de Fondos Comunes de Inversión (ACyDI N° 60). The firm operates from Bouchard N° 547 Piso 14 in the Buenos Aires financial district, employs approximately 45 people, and claims more than 20 years of operating history in national and international capital markets. Its customer base is split horizontally between individual investors seeking inflation-protected, diversified capital growth and corporate clients requiring financing, working-capital, and credit-line solutions.

The company's product portfolio spans the full Argentine capital-markets toolkit: bond and equity trading on BYMA and BCBA; Dólar MEP and CCL exchange operations for peso-volatility hedging; Caución Bursátil (stock-exchange lending) with terms from one day; ROFEX futures and options (including dollar futures and commodities); fixed income and variable income instruments; mutual fund placement (with ACDI as a core partner); CPD (Cheques de Pago Diferido) discounting on MAV; and corporate financing through SGR-backed credit lines. It also operates a dedicated research division that publishes daily reports and multiple market monitors (Global, Financial, BCRA, FCI, Macro), with Head of Research Pablo Repetto cited regularly in CNN, Bloomberg Línea, Infobae, El Economista, Ámbito Financiero, and Clarín.

AURUM's revenue model is commission-based, generated from buying and selling securities, bonds, stocks, futures operations on ROFEX, FCI placement fees, and CPD negotiations. Distribution is hybrid: clients can self-onboard and self-trade through three proprietary digital platforms (bienvenidos.aurum.com.ar for account opening, dma.aurum.com.ar for direct market access, clientes.aurum.com.ar for account inquiry), while a sales-led personalized advisory motion handles higher-touch individual and corporate relationships with tailored investment proposals. The firm holds operational membership across BYMA, BCBA, ROFEX, MAE, MAV, and Caja de Valores for clearing and settlement, and maintains channel partnerships with ACDI (mutual funds), BiBank (CPD), and multiple SGRs (corporate credit).
