Business Wire
Posted: 2008-05-13 08:00:00
Instinet, a global securities firm and wholly-owned subsidiary of Nomura
Holdings, Inc., today announced that it has been ranked first among
brokers1 for execution quality in overall
trading of both NASDAQ-listed and NYSE/regional-listed stocks in 2007,
according to Investment Technology Group’s
Plexus BrokerEDGE MonitorTM survey, which
covered the four quarters through 4Q07.
Altogether Instinet ranked first in 18 of Plexus’
28 measurement categories, including core areas such as block trades and
trades in small-cap stocks. This was more than double the number of
first-place rankings of any competitor (see tables below).
“More of the listed market is being executed
electronically, and that aligns with Instinet’s
strengths,” noted Michael Plunkett, President
of Instinet, LLC. “Our high-speed platform,
broad connectivity and agency trading model is delivering new value to
our clients in the listed market as it has always done in the OTC market.”
