TradingBlock, a provider of custom trading technology solutions for institutions, individuals and Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs), has added an executing broker-neutral platform for professional traders, active traders and asset managers.
The executing broker-neutral platform allows traders to design a custom execution environment around their unique strategy while reducing the limitations of being tied to a single platform, single executing broker and limited set of order routing algorithms.
“The launch of the executing broker-neutral platform signals yet another way TradingBlock is committed to being made for the way you trade,” said TradingBlock Institutional Trading Manager Gino Stella.
“It not only gives traders access to their choice of executing brokers and order routing algorithms but also provides built-in order routing redundancy when they need it and offers access to custom reporting to meet varied portfolio reporting requirements.”
With this platform, TradingBlock is delivering unparalleled flexibility and control to its clients, helping them optimize their trading environments without being locked into specific systems.
Traders now have a choice of professional trading software as well as access to multiple executing brokers and diverse order routing algorithms.
Built-in order routing redundancy, which provides added security, ensures uninterrupted operations, while tailored pricing offers the benefit of personalized pricing schedules, rebates and transparent pass-through costs.
The launch of the executing broker-neutral platform comes as TradingBlock offers mini-prime brokerage services for smaller funds, giving them access to sophisticated prime brokerage solutions usually reserved for larger institutions.
This includes security lending, short selling and capital-efficient clearing solutions — without passing high costs to the client.
With access to multiple third-party brokers and trading platforms, those using TradingBlock can choose the best execution strategy that suits their specific goals, ensuring flexibility and transparency in every trade.
