At BTIG, we partner with both emerging and established funds to offer comprehensive prime brokerage solutions, designed to support clients’ evolving needs and foster long-term relationships. Our experienced team provides global equity and electronic trading, equity derivatives for hedging, commission management, custody and clearing coordination, and exclusive access to our Capital Introduction network. With robust reporting, analytics, and dedicated client service—including a personal account executive and transition support—we deliver a seamless, customized experience. Through our scalable platform and global perspective, BTIG empowers fund managers with the tools and expertise needed for effective portfolio management and strategic growth.

BTIG’s Outsource Trading platform offers investment managers a scalable, agency-focused solution that replicates and enhances the capabilities of an in-house global trading desk. With over 25 specialized traders across six major financial centers, 24-hour market coverage, and access to more than 3,500 liquidity sources, we deliver seamless execution across equities, ETFs, portfolios, and FX. Our services are fully customizable—whether acting as your complete trading arm or supplementing your internal desk—and always prioritize client interests. In addition to execution, clients benefit from integrated access to capital introduction, prime brokerage, research, electronic trading, and commission management.

BTIG’s Capital Introduction team delivers a tailored, results-driven approach for Prime Brokerage and Outsource Trading clients, leveraging an extensive global network of institutional investors. We collaborate closely with fund managers to understand their strategies and fundraising goals, helping to refine their messaging and maximize visibility in the marketplace. In addition to facilitating targeted investor introductions, our team supports business development through exclusive events and ongoing marketing guidance, empowering clients to focus on managing and growing their funds.

BTIG’s electronic trading platform blends advanced technology, including AI-powered strategies and smart order routing, with dedicated, high-touch client service. As an independent, agency-focused provider, we deliver fully-transparent, low-touch execution and direct market access across all major North American exchanges and ATSs. Our customizable algorithms, flexible pricing, including cost-plus and commission management, and detailed pre- and post-trade analytics, empower a diverse range of institutional clients to optimize performance while maintaining full visibility and control over their trading activity.
