Liberum Sales
Our highly experienced sales team is based in both London and New York. We pride ourselves on the relationships we have built with fund managers on both sides of the Atlantic which has allowed us to introduce North American investors to pan-European companies.
Years of experience and relationship-building mean our trusted sales team speaks daily with institutional investors who want only actionable ideas relevant to them. Our goal is to help them outperform the market. We focus on cash equities and convertibles.
We work closely with a diversified range of top-quality corporate clients. Our links with investors are the bedrock for IPOs, equity raisings for listed companies and block trades.

Liberum Execution and Market Making
Liberum provides a powerful set of services across a wide range of stock capitalisations. We bring liquidity in the niches that matter and are market-makers in more than 350 large, mid and small cap stocks.
In electronic trading, we provide access to more than 50 dark pools, SI's & exchanges, offer three electronic block trading facilities and have developed a number of proprietary dark aggregators to help achieve price advantages that are independently benchmarked by LiquidMetrix.
We also deploy white-labelled algorithms from several of our seven Tier 1 investment bank partners.
Underpinning all the computers and technology is an experienced team that offers tailored advice and strategies, giving a highly personalised service.
Liberum T-REX
Liberum has recently innovated in the electronic trading space with a new trading algorithm called T-REX, built in conjunction with Turquoise (LSE). T-REX executes retail flow using institutional trading technology, specifically new lit auctions (called periodic or continuous) that have appeared since MIFID II came into force.
The auctions occur every 50-100 ms all day and as such can offer a faster way of trading than the market making RSP, or can be used alongside the RSP. When executed, T-Rex will always achieve Mid-point or better.
