Taxable Trading & Sales

First Tryon has assembled a team of taxable trading and sales professionals with a comprehensive depth of experience and knowledge. The firm’s taxable professionals have an average of 15 years of experience and possess diverse backgrounds including retail, institutional, and buy side exposure. This broad range of backgrounds and depth of experience results in First Tryon being an effective market maker in a wide variety of sectors, structures, and lot sizes. Too often broker dealers view odd lot trades as unwanted business, and their bids and offers reflect that view. First Tryon will provide the same professional attention to our customers regardless of the size of the trade they are attempting to execute. The firm is able to be of particular value to our customers when they are attempting to execute trades in "off the run" securities. First Tryon provides liquidity for our customers where it is traditionally lacking. Contact us today and allow us the opportunity to earn your business.
