What is Trade Execution?
Trade Execution refers to a set of work activities aimed at researching, capturing, filling, monitoring and adjusting trades and trade positions. Initial research is performed by portfolio managers, their teams (investment analysts or associates) and trading counterparties. Once they have reached a consensus on the details of the transaction, they pass the information off to the middle/back office (trade operations and support) for completion. After the trade has been booked and executed, portfolio managers and their teams review the performance of the transaction and scale the position up or down based on the performance data they are seeing.
