Equity trading
Domestic trading
Raymond James’ extensive institutional sales network positions us as a premier distribution system both nationally and abroad – an advantage you can extend to corporate clients and prospects looking to generate capital through a public offering. A testament to our strong presence in the market, we maintain a track record of being among the top traders for our firm’s lead-managed underwritings. In addition, we make markets in over 700 Nasdaq securities.
International trading
Our International trading area trades all over-the-counter American depository receipts (ADRs), ordinary (foreign) and Canadian shares. We have the ability to access the majority of foreign exchanges directly for sizable orders. Our traders also handle all foreign currency trades for Raymond James.
Unit investment trusts
Our Unit Investment Trust department distributes new-issue UITs and maintains a secondary market for existing UITs, which include taxable bond and equity alternatives. Through the professional selection and diversification inherent in UIT portfolios, individual investors can benefit from competitive returns with specific time horizons.
