Frequently asked questions
How does GTS source proprietary deal flow?
GTS does not source deal flow in the private-markets sense. Its proprietary edge comes from the in-house technology stack used for market making, pricing, and trade execution across equities, options, futures, and currencies. The firm acts as a principal liquidity provider, executing trades on behalf of clients and for its own account.
Does GTS participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
GTS's primary activity is direct market making and execution, not fund commitments or private direct investments. While its website lists an email address for investor inquiries, the firm does not publicly disclose any fund-of-funds or direct-deal investment programs.
What investment stages does GTS typically target?
GTS does not target investment stages. The firm provides two-sided liquidity in publicly traded securities across multiple asset classes, operating on exchanges and alternative trading venues. There is no public disclosure of late-stage private investments or venture activities.
What is GTS's known posture on co-investments alongside external GPs?
There is no public evidence that GTS co-invests alongside external general partners in private markets. The firm's regulated broker-dealer activities and proprietary market-making operations constitute its core model, with no disclosed co-investment programs or club-deal participation.
How is GTS's European entity regulated, and how is it separated from the U.S. operations?
GTS Securities Europe Ltd. is authorized and regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority. It handles certain regulated activities in Europe, while the U.S. equity and options market-making operations run through GTS Securities and GTS Execution Services under SEC and FINRA oversight. The website lists distinct offices in London, New York, and Chicago to support this geographic separation.
