Methodology

Between September and November 2017, Greenwich Associates canvassed heads of equity trading at North American, European, and Asian institutions regarding typical commission rates paid across 77 different markets. We received responses from 206 institutions, up 15% from 2016.

Desks were asked for their overall bundled rate; execution-only rates for high touch, portfolio and electronic trades; tack-on rates for high-touch, portfolio and electronic trades; and all-in blended rates across Developed, Emerging and Frontier markets. Twenty-three countries are categorized by MSCI as Developed markets, 22 as Emerging markets, and 32 as Frontier markets.
