Yahoo Finance Virtu Financial (VIRT) Adds Rule 606 Reporting Aggregation Tool
Virtu Financial, Inc. VIRT recently introduced SEC Rule 606 Reporting Aggregation service, which enables US buy-side subscribers to analyse the routing and execution practices. They are now able to analyse data from brokers through a single access point, which is way more feasible and convenient.
This addition helps compare performances with intuitive visualizations of brokers. It consists of measures like fees and rebates by venue, routing choices, spread capture, et al.
The new service complements the company’s analytics portal that will now allow clients to assess their Rule 606(b)(3) documents from each of their respective brokers and compile custom reports, etc.
Virtu Financial’s SEC Rule 606 Aggregation Service is also expected to provide more transparency around a broker’s routing and execution practises, which in turn, also gives a clear picture of the market.
Clients now have a fantastic opportunity of quality assessment across brokers with the help of a single, streamlined platform. This also underlines the company’s commitment to leverage innovation and technology for delivering better services.
Virtu Financial’s 606 Reporting Aggregation service is available to people via the Virtu Analytics Portal.
The company is constantly making efforts to expand its data and analytics abilities of late. Last month, it expanded its multi-asset transaction cost model offering with the introduction of Fixed Income Agency Cost Estimator (FI ACE). The cost estimates calculated by FI ACE are given after accessing the collective proprietary trade information contained in Virtu Financial’s Global Peer database for Fixed Income (GPFI). Apart from liquidity maintenance and risk management capabilities, the new tool can even be utilized for assigning liquidity score to individual bonds, which paves the way for building a cost-effective portfolio.
