Execution, Settlement and Custody

Providing Execution, Settlement and Custody across Global Markets and Multiple Asset Classes, Titan Institutional Services operates on a riskless principal basis and does not take any proprietary traded positions.

We provide settlement for equities and fixed income securities on a “Model A basis”. This means that as your agent in the market, we act as your trade intermediary, giving you access to global settlement and custody markets via our connectivity to multiple, industry-leading sub-custodians.

Our clearing solution is built around a combination of our proprietary, web-based back-office platform and in-house operational scale and expertise. The result is global markets access while at the same time reducing operational risk and increasing the efficiency of our clients’ overall clearing and settlement process.
