Who We Are
Carolina Capital Markets, Inc. is a broker/dealer specializing in fixed income
products and client commission services for institutional clients. The firm was
founded in 1994 and is a fully-disclosed clearing correspondent of Clearview LLC, a subsidiary of BB&T Corporation. As a provider of Bloomberg and other services,
we help fixed income management firms reduce or eliminate research and analytic costs
through the compliant and transparent use of client commission arrangements under Section
28(e) of the Exchange Act.
In the secondary fixed income market, we believe that best execution is a key to
Section 28(e) compliance. CCMs senior traders have years of experience and extensive
contacts on the Street; we work every trade to help you get best execution. In
keeping with the guidelines of 28(e), we work on an agency basis, with fully disclosed
commissions.
CCM has developed a proprietary database, encompassing the whole universe of high-grade
corporate, agency, and asset-backed bonds, that allows its sales force to quickly locate
the best bids and offers.
How We're Different
CCM provides its clients with access to searchable databases of corporate, agency,
mortgage and asset backed offerings, comprising the inventories of over 80 fixed income
dealers.
As a non-positioning dealer, CCM's concern is to help you find bonds that meet YOUR needs,
not those of a proprietary trading desk. Moreover, we work to get you the best possible
execution on both bids and offers.
At other firms, brokers take an order and pass it off to a busy trader for execution. But
your Carolina Capital sales person talks directly to the Street. We believe this is a more
cost-effective trading model -- and no one will work your order with more diligence than
your own CCM salesperson.
