Electronic Trading and Execution Services

Within Global Markets, the Electronic Trading and Execution Services team provides market access, opening up a wide range of investment opportunities in diverse asset classes, in response to specific client requirements.

Intermonte provides a range of technologically advanced platforms and interfaces for high-performance, reduced cost market access. Thanks to its dedicated back office, Intermonte handles all post-trading and settlement activities with the necessary diligence and attention to detail.

Derivatives & Market Making

The market-making team is a leader in the listed equity derivatives business where it operates as a Primary Market Maker to guarantee ongoing market liquidity and provide competitive pricing and spreads to institutional clients.

Launched in 2011, the activity consists in continuously quoting bid and ask prices on almost all stocks on the FTSE MIB and on the main mid-caps for a total of 52 underlying stocks and more than 4,700 instruments listed on the IDEM segment (American options, European options, and stock futures). Since 2019, Intermonte has expanded the range of derivative products it offers thanks to the addition of the main European securities listed on the Eurex market.

Thanks to the large number of Italian and foreign institutional client relationships and the flows it receives daily, the market making desk can offer highly competitive pricing for significant quantities with tighter bid-ask spreads.

As proof of clients’ appreciation of the performance of the market-making team, almost every year in the last ten Intermonte has come first or in any case among the top three in the Assosim rankings of proprietary volumes traded for Italian single stock options and for Italian stock futures in Italy.

ETF Trading

Through its dedicated team, Intermonte offers its clients brokerage on ETF / ETC, guaranteeing access to all ETP listed on regulated European markets and to the primary market through NAV trading methods.

Trading methods match investors’ most diverse requirements including on / off exchange, or in response to RFQs through the main MTFs (MiFID II).

Collaboration between the ETF trading desk and the in-house macro research team makes it possible to provide clients with a professional and timely service to support clients in the creation and implementation of investment strategies that bring together deep market analysis and careful selection of the most suitable investment instruments available on the market.

Fixed Income

Debt securities (fixed income) also come under Global Markets where Intermonte is a leader in placement in brokerage of bonds, providing clients with coverage of all phases of fixed income activities, from primary market placement through brokerage of Italian and foreign corporate and government bonds on the secondary market, to market making.

Advisory on structuring and placement of corporate bonds, especially convertible bonds or quasi-equity, completes the Intermonte offering in order to support the client at all stages of assessing investment opportunities.
