Client Solutions

Institutional Agency Trading

(High-Touch/Low-Touch)

Low Touch /DEA Trading is designed to appeal to clients who have sophisticated strategies and are capable of trading without a need for direct intervention.

An experienced trader will be ready should a low-touch client have an immediate need for assistance with accessing liquidity or trade processing. Typically, these strategies are high-volume, high-turnover, and proprietary to the individual client.

High Touch Outsourced Trading Desk is available to all institutional clients of ITG should they wish to access dark, opaque, or Over The Counter (OTC) markets in equities and fixed-income products. Our diverse team of traders leverage their experience to help our clients meet their liquidity needs by leveraging ITG’s expertise in transacting within complex and illiquid markets.

Investment Banking

Independence is our differentiator.

Our solutions help public and private companies, financial institutions and advisory firms to raise capital, identify conflicts of interest and provide issuers with the best independent advice.

Most investment banks rely heavily on deal flow to facilitate transactions and offer issuers little to no post-deal support. ITG’s investment banking division provides technical due diligence, financial modelling, transaction structuring, and financial and business advice for mergers & acquisitions.

ITG can support deal makers and issuers that align with our brand values and corporate code of ethics rather than doing deals to make a quota or churning commissions.
