Rosenblatt Securities started as an independent NYSE floor broker in 1979 with a simple goal: help clients prosper with conflict-free advice and execution services. Since then, we have adapted,expanded and diversified to become a leading agency brokerage,investment-banking and research boutique. But we remain committed to our founding principles in everything we do:
Be a trusted counterparty who safeguards clients' anonymity while minimizing information leakage and market impact
● Access liquidity, wherever it resides, to maximize customer alpha
● Embrace any technology or venue that will improve clients' results
● Be deeply expert, including understanding market structure nuances to offer a trading edge
