Discount broker
Securities trading house that processes buy and sell orders at reduced prices
Discount brokerages are usually operated by direct banks. Because they do not provide financial advisory services, their fees for orders are normally lower than those of ’’normal’’ banks. Customers place orders with discount brokers via modern communications media such as the internet, fax and telephone.
Our glossary explains important financial terms and should not leave any questions unanswered. However, if you are missing a definition, please write to us at redaktion@deutsche-boerse.com. We will then include the term if possible.
