Our People
At Intrepid Capital, we’re proud of our team. The talent within our business is key to our success. Part of this team has been instrumental in creating and listing the derivatives products on the JSE.
Our dealers have a fundamental understanding of the mechanics behind each derivative product. And, because of our years of experience, knowledge and understanding, we’re adept at managing a marketplace that moves quickly
Our Technology
We have strategically invested in a market-leading leading DMA (Direct Market Access) platform that allows real time trading and can cope with dynamic risk management on a real time basis. Our DMA is a user-friendly web-based platform which means you are able to access your portfolio from any device or location. All SAFEX products are traded on the WebTrader Pro platform provided by Nutcracker.
Our Clients
Trading derivatives requires a different approach to that of traditional stocks and bonds. This is because less capital is required to get access to greater exposure, which means that investors can leverage their positions. By the same token, they have a misconception of carrying a ‘higher risk’ which can cause potential clients to shy away from this form of investment. At Intrepid Capital, we aim to encourage potential clients to put their trust in us and move away from the traditional financial broker and old-fashioned way of thinking.
We empower our clients by providing them with expert knowledge, advice and solutions to enable them to create their own investment strategy, which can be both liberating and financially rewarding. We are a modern firm that strongly believes that people must take responsibility for their own financial freedom.
Our professional team is here to help you with any questions or concerns.
