HISTORY & TIMELINE
OTC GLOBAL HOLDINGS HISTORY AND TIMELINE
From our humble beginnings in March 2007, when co-founder of OTC Global Holdings (OTCGH) Javier Loya moved from being CEO of Houston-based energy firm Choice Brokerage and then acquired Choice Natural Gas, LP and Choice Power, LP to today, OTCGH has been about growth. Nearly every month for the past decade, there have been additions to the OTCGH team of companies and the global commodities powerhouse continues to thrive and grow.
For years, we have been leading the industry in offering actionable and timely market data and brokerage support and continue to grow our partnerships with data aggregators and independent brokerage firms to this day. Our advanced trading analytics are now used by large corporations and individual investors in the energy commodity space around the world, and our client list includes some of the most impressive names in the industry.
We are continuing to push and grow, rewriting what it means to be an independent institutional broker of commodities, with offices around the world from Chicago, New York, and New Jersey, to London, Geneva, and Singapore. We are now a leading liquidity provider on ICE, CME, and NFX, and serve more than 450 institutional clients.
