Jan 2026Strategic investmentSBI Holdings (lead); Baillie Gifford$50M$12BClear Street is a New York-based securities and derivatives broker founded in 2018, operating as a prime brokerage platform that has expanded into investment banking, equity research, and related services. The company secured a new investment round reportedly at a $12 billion valuation, with fund managers Baillie Gifford and SBI Holdings leading the equity portion, while BlackRock participated in the senior notes on the debt side. SBI Holdings specifically invested $50 million for a minority stake, paving the way for a potential Japan joint venture. Piper Sandler acted as joint lead placement agent on $78.5 million in additional senior unsecured notes around the same period. Clear Street generated net revenue of approximately $940 million in the 12 months ending September 30, according to confidential documents. The company reported net income of $89 million in 2024, reversing an $18 million loss from 2023. It expects net revenue between $1.04 billion and $1.06 billion for full-year 2025, up from $463.6 million the prior year, amid a prime brokerage boom driven by surging company valuations and new hedge funds. The funding supports preparations for an initial public offering, with Clear Street targeting up to $11.8 billion valuation in its U.S. IPO filing, potentially listing on Nasdaq under 'CLRS' as soon as early 2026. Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, UBS, and others are advising on the IPO, with BlackRock indicating interest in buying up to $200 million in shares.

It offers a prime brokerage platform processing significant daily trading volumes, initially focused on equity finance for institutional investors, with plans to expand across asset classes, markets, and participant types including fintechs, market makers, and traders. On April 11, 2023, Clear Street announced a $270 million investment from Prysm Capital, the second tranche of its $435 million Series B round, valuing the company at $2.0 billion post-money. This followed a $165 million first tranche in May 2022 also led by Prysm at a $1.7 billion valuation. The funding supports geographic expansion, new product offerings, and broader market access, backed by institutional investors like public pension funds and endowments. Prior backers include NextGen Venture Partners, IMC Investments, Walleye Capital, Belvedere, NEAR Foundation, McLaren Strategic Ventures, and Validus Growth Investors. Traction includes processing over $10 billion in daily trades by April 2023, up from $3 billion in 2022, with 500% growth in institutional clients and over 300% increase in daily transactional volume in the past year. The company had operated on founder capital and debt from insurers and banks before equity raises, accumulating $700 million in total capital by early 2023. Clear Street differentiates through real-time risk analytics, scalability, and API-first platforms addressing manual processes and silos in a trillion-dollar U.S. securities industry reliant on 1980s technology.

The round valued Clear Street at a post-money $1.7 billion, bringing total capital to around $700 million including prior debt. At the time of the May 2022 tranche, Clear Street reported strong traction since early 2021, including a 220% increase in financing balances, 510% growth in equity transactional volume, and processing over $3 billion in daily trading volume. The funding aimed to accelerate platform launch, expand offerings, improve public market access, and invest in sales and engineering teams. Prysm Capital highlighted Clear Street's cutting-edge platform addressing outdated capital market technologies making markets expensive and hard to access. This initial $165 million tranche was followed by a second $270 million investment from Prysm in April 2023, completing the $435 million Series B at a raised $2.0 billion valuation, supporting geographic expansion, new markets, asset classes, product acceleration, and client consolidation to a single platform.
