Prime Brokerage

FBR Capital Markets (“FBR” NASDAQ:FBCM) has been providing alpha-generating ideas and services for over 20 years.  The FBR Prime Brokerage Services group is an integral part of this effort and is your one-stop point of access to FBR’s global capabilities.

FBR was founded on the belief you must truly know and understand your client in order to serve them. This concept continues as the core of FBR’s customer relationship philosophy, and is more important than ever as other firms move away from high touch client service.

As our Prime Brokerage client, we are committed to delivering to you hands on client service and the benefits of our entire organization.  We will introduce you to FBR’s award-winning research and our extensive trading capabilities, including equities, derivatives, credit, and other products. 

In addition, sometimes finding the right investment requires an extra level of diligence.  FBR can help here as well – we have a Corporate Access Program that provides clients the opportunity to meet with the decision makers at the companies they are invested in.

Through us you also will have access to an industry leading clearing and custodial platform that offers a global securities lending program1.
