Saxo Bank invests in Microsoft’s cloud

Saxo Bank is aiming to run its entire technology stack on the Microsoft Cloud, as part of a new partnership.

As part of Saxo’s ‘banking-as-a-service model, which allows other banks and brokers to leverage its technology and global capital markets access, the decision was made to use the Microsoft Cloud to ensure scalability, flexibility and security in digital infrastructure.

“The future of financial services is cloud based and by partnering with Microsoft we take part in shaping this future,” said Kim Fournais, founder and chief executive at Saxo Bank. “By leveraging the Microsoft Cloud, we can spend more time on developing technology and less time on running it, allowing us to continue to stay at the forefront of client focused digitization and support our ambitious growth plans.”

Saxo currently supports more than 120 white label partnerships globally and facilitates access to more than 35,000 financial instruments across multiple asset classes.

Earlier this month, the Danish bank launched SaxoTraderPRO, a new trading platform for private traders and institutional clients.
