StoneX Group Expands Birmingham, Alabama, Operations

05/28/2026
Financial services company StoneX Group Inc. expand its operations in Birmingham, Alabama. The approximately $11 million project is expected to create roughly 90 jobs.

The investment will include the relocation of the company’s office to Protective Center’s corporate campus, increasing its footprint to approximately 46,000 square feet.

“Birmingham has long been a meaningful part of our operational footprint,” said Maribeth Williams, Head of Securities Operations at StoneX. “Its deep financial services roots, strong talent base, and supportive business environment make it an ideal location to continue scaling critical operational capabilities that support our global platform.”

StoneX Group provides trading, risk management, market access, and clearing services across global financial and commodity markets. The company’s operations include brokerage, asset management, payments, and institutional trading services.

“The financial sector has long been a significant and defining economic driver for the Birmingham region,” noted Alabama Department of Commerce Secretary Ellen McNair. “The expansion of StoneX’s footprint and workforce in Birmingham is further proof of the city’s standing in this market and what it and Alabama can offer companies looking to grow.”

“This announcement speaks to the kind of transformation happening across the Birmingham region as companies increasingly recognize the value of operating in markets that offer both talent and long-term stability,” added Steve Ammons, President and CEO of the Birmingham Business Alliance. “StoneX’s decision to deepen its presence here reflects confidence in Birmingham’s business environment, connectivity and workforce, while also building on the city’s longstanding legacy in financial services and operations.”
