I’m pleased see that this information is being disclosed by TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation.

From a technology perspective, financial advisors have more options today than ever before to seek bid/ask quotes in real time and route trade orders accordingly to market destinations.

This technology helps registered advisors better satisfy their best execution obligation to their investor clients.

Nevertheless, institutions often do assess “trade-away fees” that were highlighted here at RIABiz in November 2013. Advisors must carefully consider the necessity and/or purpose of the trade-away fees charged by institutions.

Ouch, looks like Schwab will get clipped next. All these brokers are too rich, and should not be getting paid for access.
