SE Global Announces Acquisition

OTCBB: SEGB

HOPKINS, MN, May 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - SE Global Equities Corp. (OTCBB:SEGB), a provider of electronic securities trading technology and financial resources for international investors, has signed a letter of intent to acquire all client accounts and certain other assets of a privately-owned registered broker-dealer ("broker-dealer") based in California. Under the terms of the agreement, certain senior management and staff of the broker- dealer will join SE Global's existing infrastructure in California and Asia.

According to the broker-dealer, it has approximately US$40 million (CAD$63 million) assets under management in about 4,000 accounts. For the fiscal year 2001, the broker-dealer reported transaction revenue of US$2.31 million (CAD$3.63 million). Established in 1997, the broker-dealer is registered in all 50 U.S. States as a General Securities Broker-Dealer and offers a wide range of securities and investment vehicles primarily to the Asian community in the U.S., Hong Kong and Taiwan.

"This strategic acquisition will expand our current client base significantly, increase our revenue and reduce our clearing and operating costs," said Toby Chu, SE Global president and chief executive officer. "Additionally, this transaction will accelerate our penetration of the Asian community, both domestically and abroad. The eventual migration of these accounts to our online and direct-access platforms is consistent with our niche market strategy of providing a full range of services to meet the needs of global investors. SE Global will continue to seek other acquisition opportunities, specializing in multiple ethnic markets, which serve as SE Global's springboard to overseas client acquisition."

This acquisition is subject to customary regulatory and closing conditions. Upon completion of the acquisition, further details will be released. About SE Global Equities Corp
