Access to Markets Worldwide

We provide access to 24-hour, integrated, multilingual, and multicurrency services through our worldwide networks.

International Trading

The International Equity Trading Desk offers traders multicurrency execution capabilities in over 65 exchanges through local relationships, third-party electronic access, and Pershing's own exchange memberships. The desk employs an agency-only approach that puts client interests first. The Fixed Income Sales Desk provides the support to buy and sell global fixed income securities. Their experienced, multilingual professionals have sales expertise in non-U.S. dollar-denominated bonds and extensive local market experience in Central and South America. With the ability to execute in nearly 50 currencies, the Foreign Exchange Desk can help our advisors to succeed globally by easily facilitating currency conversion.

Execution Power

Our Agency Sales-Trading Desk supports listed and over-the-counter (OTC) equity executions and accepts orders submitted both electronically and via telephone. Our unique agency-only approach empowers our sales-traders to focus solely on your business and provide customized execution, including algorithmic trading and the facilitation of commission management. In addition, the size and diversity of our customer base and order flow help ensure the anonymity of your orders in the marketplace. Pershing’s team of experts, including execution product managers, order routing managers, and sales-trading professionals, seek the best available markets and most efficient executions, while providing the industry’s best value and highest level of integrity.

Direct Access to the Floor

Backed by one of the largest networks of NYSE and AMEX floor brokers, Pershing’s Floor Direct service offers floor wide coverage, including hard-to execute and thinly-traded stocks. Floor Direct can send orders to the floor via telephone, Super DOT, or electronically to Pershing’s NYSE Broker Booth Support System (BBSS) or AMEX Booth Automated Routing System (BARS), and then report from the point of-sale via e-Broker hand-held technology.

Agency-Only Approach to Options

Acting as agent, Pershing’s Options Trading Desk offers execution on all six options exchanges and supports buy-writes, delta-neutral transactions, and various types of complex and stock-contingent orders. Via point-and-click technology and intelligent order routing, our experienced traders have instant access to exchanges. Additionally, our relationships with “off floor” market makers can improve execution quality on orders that require special handling. Our traders also provide valuable insight on marketplace news to facilitate your options trading strategies.

Electronic Trading

Our suite of institutional execution platforms provide open architecture solutions for direct market access and order management. These platforms, such as Sonic™, increase your trading flexibility with sophisticated tools and features, including liquidity management, native and synthetic electronic communication routing logics, synthetic and customized algorithms, and access to direct market quotes, DOT capabilities, and NYSE open book.
