Wedbush Securities, one of the nation's leading financial services and institutional execution providers, announces the launch of their Execution Solutions Group ("WESG") and ultra low-latency electronic trading platform, Powered by Lime™.
This new platform leverages the exceptional performance and reliability of Lime Brokerage, giving Institutions access to the same micro-second based trading system used by some of the most demanding automated and systematic traders. Our team of engineers continues to design, build, and optimize the most advanced trading technologies available. Our goal is to help institutions discover and leverage superior liquidity by trading significantly faster and with greater scalability. "Institutions have long wanted market access on par with the automated traders and we've fixed that problem by opening up our platform to both the buy-side and sell-side," commented Jeff Bell, CEO of Lime Brokerage.
Additionally, WESG announces revolutionary new pricing models to assist institutional clients that may be struggling with lower commission wallets and higher operating expenses. We are offering pricing models on a cost-plus and fixed pricing basis. Our new pricing models will benefit the institutional community by reducing the cost of trading and potentially increasing their funds returns. "Fixed pricing leverages the efficiencies in our technology, execution, and clearing businesses. The transparency provided by our models allow clients to better manage their expenses and order routing decisions which provides best execution while also potentially allowing them to realize significant cost savings," noted Kevin Beadles, Managing Director, Execution Solutions Group for Wedbush Securities.
In a world of increasingly complex and rapidly evolving electronic markets, you need a partner with cutting edge technology, fair and transparent pricing, and access to the deepest pools of liquidity. Your partner should not optimize your order flow for their benefit and must protect you from information leakage. "The combination of our new Execution Solutions Group's technology offerings and our award-winning Equity Research is a great benefit to our clients and showcases our continued strong commitment to the Institutional community," said Sheri Kaiserman, Head of Equities, Wedbush Securities."
