Aurel

Aurel is a French financial enterprise that operates as part of BGC Partners, an American financial services company. BGC Partners itself was created in 2004 through a spin-off from Cantor Fitzgerald, and subsequently merged with Maxcor Financial in April 2005 and with eSpeed in 2008. Within this group, Aurel is known through its subsidiary Aurel BGC, which in 2013 acquired Ginalfi Finance. Aurel thus forms part of a larger international brokerage and financial technology group, with its activities rooted in the French market. The brand is associated with financial brokerage and related services, and its parent BGC Partners has been involved in significant corporate actions, including a 2014 offer to acquire GFI Group for $675 million. In 2019, U.S. and New York regulators fined two BGC Partners units $25 million over fraudulent foreign exchange options transactions. Aurel continues to operate as a French entity within the BGC Partners group.
