According to the announcement, MRA provides institutional investors with derivatives market insight, was well as what the firm called “actionable trade ideas and greater trade execution efficiency” for equities, ETFs, listed options, and OTC derivatives.
“The financial market crisis leaves investors exposed to unprecedented equity volatility and in need of a trading partner that delivers solutions,” said Dean Curnutt, founder and president of MRA. “Our team of equity derivative professionals excels in combining superior market insight with proven expertise in salestrading. We deliver the strategic advice investors need while achieving efficient execution by accessing a dispersed pool of liquidity. At MRA, the salestrader and strategist are one and the same.”
Curnutt was formerly the Head of Institutional Equity Derivatives and Convertible Sales at Banc of America Securities. MRA, which became a member of FINRA in April 2009, has been providing trading and strategy ideas to a select group of clients since April 2008. With FINRA membership, MRA can now provide execution services to clients in addition to market insight, according to the firm.
