A multi-billion dollar hedge fund has chosen to implement MIK's Broker Vote Application
A multi-billion dollar hedge fund has chosen to implement MIK's Broker Vote Application. With the use of the Broker Vote, the analysts and traders at the hedge fund can participate to provide quantitative, centralized assessments of each of their broker relationships, which in turn facilitates discussions with brokers to provide areas of improvement and also to drive business to those that have ranked exceptionally high. By capturing each period’s vote data, it also allows year over year comparisons of rankings, which helps build long term relationships between the fund and the brokers.
