“Matba Rofex’s main futures, which are those for the dollar and grains (soybeans, wheat and corn), are a world reference, they are first in the rankings and without foreign investors, due to the current context, being able to operate them.”he pointed out.
“In an Argentina connected to the world, the possibility of different international segments operating Argentine futures and options is very great,” he insisted.
“Today technology is the capital market”
“Today technology is the capital market, you can hardly launch a successful product in the capital market if it is not supported from end to end by technology, and mainly by technology with a lot of usability”Dalonso assessed.
“There is always a prejudice that the stock market is something cryptic, closed to very particular investors, and that has changed completely and has changed due to technology, for example, An astonishing fact is that today the Argentine capital market is used by about 20 million people.“Dalonso said.
About this, he pointed out that “whoever has an account in a digital wallet sees that their money is remunerated, and it is remunerated with a Common Investment Fund that is a capital market instrument, and what makes this happen is technology. “.
“An inverse paradox happened, in the capital market we always had the idea that we had to bring people to the capital market, and what happened was the other way around, the capital market went to the people, it was where people move. “he insisted.
The products of the Matba Rofex Group
On the other hand, Dalonso indicated that Matba Rofex recently launched Bitcoinwhich he described as “a very attractive product”, since it is the third of its kind launched in a global market. “Probably in the short term we will also be launching other crypto asset products”he remarked.
Likewise, he recalled that the agricultural futures They are the “classic” products of the Group. “The dollar futureswhich are the sixth most traded currency future in the world, are also very important for exporters, importers, and others,” he added.
“Our equity futures They are also very good to complement with Argentine equity spot strategies, which are very dynamic,” he continued.
“A very important asset also supported by technology that must be analyzed in Argentina is the tokenization of assets of the real economy, and, specifically, the possibility of secondary trading of these assets”he added.
Regarding this, he said that “today, if someone wants, they can access different portals and buy square meters of real estate, or fields, or beef production through tokens,” but that “all of this is done on separate portals and one does not know well to whoever is giving their money, I think there is a great opportunity to develop the tokenization of the real economy of that style.
Finally, Dalonso highlighted that Matba Rofex’s New Rofex Operators (NOR) program, which he described as “a hotbed” of users whose accounts are funded so that they can operate in the futures and options market.
“That program is now 10 years old and has trained a lot of people, where approximately 50 of those people were trained as operators and have become part of the intermediaries’ staff.” In turn, he considered as a future challenge to have “less interventionism” in prices as a country, and to improve technological usability at the market level.
