Our desk complements the flow with proprietary research from our strategic partners and our independent research arm, IRC Securities, which provides independent investment research firms with a suite of research prime services.

We are capable of accessing liquidity destinations through Listed and OTC markets and provide our buy-side institutional clients with specialized execution services, such as Algo strategies, pairs and dark ATFs. We connect with MacGregor, EzE Castle, Charles River and various other Order Management Systems (OMS).

The desk also offers program trading run by a former head of a major ECNs Global Portfolio Trading. Furthermore, our desk is an introducing broker to Goldman Sachs Execution & Clearing (GSEC)

We can execute equities on behalf of Multitrade, a Lighthouse affiliated minority-owned, Latino broker-dealer.
