TORONTO, Jan. 12, 2016 /CNW/ - Virtual Brokers ("VB"), the top ranked* and most innovative Canadian online broker, is changing the industry once again with its unique Commission-Free Trading Account^, where the customer can trade equities for free. VB is raising the bar one more time and taking the discount brokerage playing field to another level.
Unlike other major brokerage firms in Canada which use 3rd party clearing systems, BBS Securities ("BBS") and its division VB use a proprietary clearing system, Pario. This gives VB higher margins and in turn, the benefit is conferred to its customers.
"We pride ourselves on the merit of finding ways to add value to our clients. Active traders are cost sensitive and in these difficult markets cost is a major issue. Our Commission-Free Trading Account is meant to reduce, and in some instances eliminate their variable cost, improving their P&L and giving them a clearer visibility to their variable cost. All clients have to do is to subscribe to one of our listed trading platforms and we offer a variety of them. I urge you to visit our website where our commission-free calculator provides you with your estimated commission savings." said Bardya Ziaian, CEO and President of Virtual Brokers and BBS Securities Inc.
