ORDER FLOW

All broker-dealers are required by the Securities and Exchange Commission to make annual disclosure to clients concerning order routing practices and payment for order flow received from market centers and regional exchanges to which the broker-dealer routes orders for execution. We are providing you this information to assist you in understanding the process TradePMR employs.

TradePMR receives payment for routing certain orders in equity securities to specialized market maker firms for execution. Orders for securities entered “at the market” or “at quote limit” prices may be eligible for such payments. Other types of orders generally are not eligible for payments.

TradePMR and its affiliates believe that our order routing policies may provide significant benefits to clients. Practices engaged by specialized market maker firms and alternative market centers are designed to enhance quality and to provide opportunities for price improvement.

Upon written request, TradePMR will provide specific information regarding a particular transaction, including whether or not payment for order flow was received, the source of such payment, and the amount of such payment.

 

IDENTITY VERIFICATION

In compliance with the USA Patriot Act, TradePMR will verify information given on accounts using third party credit agencies in compliance with all government and industry regulations. Failure to provide adequate and correct information on any account will result in reporting to the proper government enforcement agency.
