PRIME BROKER-Prime Broker
A prime broker is a broker offering professional services specifically aimed at hedge funds and other large institutional customers. While hedge funds can trade through a variety of brokers, they are virtually required to do some of their business at one or more prime brokers. Prime brokers are typically large organizations with well known names, like Banc of America Securities, Bear Stearns, Goldman Sachs, Lehman, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, Pershing, and Speer, Leeds and Kellogg. Prime brokerage services include helping a fund raise money and seeing to special compliance needs, in addition to all of the standard brokerage services.
