Knight is an important, vital source of liquidity. At the
heart of our business are liquidity and the commitment to customize trade executions while providing superior client service.
We handle large, complex trades by accessing liquidity from our order flow from all sources, especially our own tremendous volume. And when liquidity is not naturally present in the market, we have the ability to commit our own capital to complete trades on our client’s behalf.
We provide our clients a single destination for
over-the-counter, NYSE- and AMEX-listed equities.
