Portfolio Execution Services
Revopex has offered portfolio execution services to clients for decades. Our philosophy remains the same today as the day we opened our doors: offer best execution with low commission rates. We do this through careful pre-trade analysis and planning, adaptive execution strategies, and a comprehensive post-trade analysis.
A Measured Approach Using Trade Compass
Revopex's innovative web-based pre-trade tool, Trade Compass, enables global institutions to determine the liquidity of their investment holdings. It evaluates them as a percentage of typical daily volume, then estimates the time required to liquidate each holding or the entire portfolio.
The inverse relationship between opportunity cost and market impact remains the single most overwhelming cost factor in any large trade. If trading is done too rapidly, the trades move the market. If done too slowly, the market may move against the trades. The goal is to trade the optimal number and size of trades over the right time-frame.
Revopex's pre-trade analysis examines portfolio positions, liquidity, and price behavior to identify high-risk positions. We use our extensive data bank of historical statistics to make inferences about the relative risk of a position. We can then produce multiple cost estimates based on proprietary algorithms that incorporate stock liquidity, price behavior, and market impact functions.

Trade Pulse, our real-time tool, combines intra-day and real-time measurement functionality. Keeping communications open, we offer up-to-the-minute reporting throughout the trading day. Building upon our experience in developing industry leading TCA products, we are then able to:
