Wholesale Trading
Wholesale trading comprises all direct trading between Optiver and the professional ‘wholesale' market. The professional market is mainly represented by brokers that execute trading flow for counterparties such as banks and institutional investors. These trades are normally carried out through verbal communication such as via phone lines or direct box lines instead of through the screen.
The wholesale trading team consists of specialised and experienced market professionals who trade exchange traded products off the screen. In general the sizes traded are considered too large for the screen, and thus the wholesale market exists alongside the screen to facilitate the larger quantities. Wholesale traders make markets in listed equity, index and fixed income derivatives. Besides options, we also provide liquidity in delta one products, namely the ADR Crossbook and ETFs.
Other important roles for wholesale traders include; finding information and screening information to facilitate trading decisions for the company as a whole, actively looking for trading opportunities in the market and keeping track of possible risks. Wholesale traders are considered the eyes and ears of the company.
