For Institutional Investors
Corinthian Partners’ Institutional Trading desk serves asset managers, hedge funds, family offices, and other institutional clients with execution and market coverage across the principal asset classes. The desk operates within the firm’s introducing broker-dealer framework, with trades cleared on a fully disclosed basis through RBC Capital Markets, LLC.
Order flow and primary-issuance allocations are distributed across institutional, private-client, and family-office channels, giving issuer clients a multi-channel distribution profile and giving institutional clients access to pipeline outside the major-institution lane.
Coverage emphasizes the segments where a disciplined boutique adds measurable value: fixed-income inquiries, less-trafficked equity names, structured products, and primary issuance allocations from the firm’s Capital Markets calendar.
- Equity execution, listed and over-the-counter corporate equity securities.
- Fixed income, corporate debt, U.S. government securities, municipal securities, and select high-yield.
- Options and derivative strategies, where suitable for the institutional mandate.
- Allocations from the firm’s IPO and PIPE calendar, subject to qualification.
Coverage Model
The institutional desk is a senior-led practice. Clients are paired with a single primary contact who coordinates execution, research views from the firm’s Capital Markets team, and access to the firm’s primary-issuance pipeline.
Prime Services
Corinthian Partners does not operate a prime brokerage of its own. Where a client mandate requires prime brokerage capabilities, the firm coordinates through long-standing relationships with established third-party prime service providers. These arrangements are governed by direct agreements between the client and the prime broker, with Corinthian acting as the introducing party and primary point of contact.
The model lets clients retain the prime broker of their choice while drawing on the firm’s coverage, primary-issuance access, and senior-led service for day-to-day execution.
- Custody and consolidated reporting through institutional clearing platforms.
- Securities lending and short-coverage support, subject to availability and counterparty terms.
- Margin and securities-based financing.
- Capital introduction to qualified allocators, where the client has elected to participate.
- Trade execution routed through a client’s existing prime relationships, where preferred.
