*Avg. Execution Score Rank: All executions for each approved broker are measured against three trading benchmarks:

  • Trade Date Open
  • Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP)
  • Trade Date Close

Differences between average prices and benchmarks are expressed in percentage terms (difference divided by trade value) and are rolled-up by broker into a weighted average percentage difference across each of the three benchmark measures. All 16 approved brokers are ranked across the three different benchmark measures (top-rank meaning the smallest % difference from the benchmark). A weight is applied to each benchmark ranking (Trade Date Open = 70%, VWAP = 15%, Trade Date Close = 15%) and the average ranks are rolled-up into a final “Average Execution Score Rank.”

Example:

Broker X:

  • Trade Date Open Rank: 5
  • Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) Rank: 10
  • Trade Date Close Rank: 15
  • Execution Score Rank = (70% * 5) + (15% * 10) + (15% * 15) = 7

Execution quality is reviewed on a weekly basis by the Trading team utilizing Trade Cost Analysis (TCA) software. A summary of the TCA is generated quarterly and reviewed in detail with the Trading Practices Committee. Any outliers are reviewed to determine what factors contributed to the execution results and if the factors were within the traders'/brokers' control.
