Market Structure Analyst, TABB Group CEO Larry Tabb Penning Multi-Part Series Beginning With “Best Execution”
Talking about “best execution” is easy, warns global securities market structure analyst Larry Tabb, founder and CEO of research firm TABB Group, “but defining it, putting it into context and actually determining best ex isn’t. While markets are governed by fairness, the brokers’ job isn’t to be fair to others; it’s to perform their fiduciary obligation of obtaining the best outcome for their clients.”

SIFMA Submits Comments Highlighting Significant Concerns With The FINRA CARDS Rule Proposal
SIFMA today submitted a comment letter to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) expressing significant concerns with FINRA's proposal for the development of a Comprehensive Automated Risk Data System (CARDS). The letter includes two new studies by IBM, commissioned by SIFMA, that estimate the significant costs and cybersecurity risks posed by CARDS, as proposed. SIFMA concludes that FINRA's CARDS proposal would impose undue costs and burdens on member firms far exceeding any benefit and does not appropriately account for the impact on investor privacy and cybersecurity risk, and therefore should not be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Further, CARDS, as proposed, would be duplicative to existing investor protection systems and processes.
