Investors' Marketplace

Investors' Marketplace is a free online forum where IB customers can form connections with service providers and do business together on Interactive Brokers' platform. Hedge Fund Investment Managers can search for service providers, including Financing Firms, on the IB website or within Account Management. Investment Managers can advertise other third-party services that they offer, such as research or software tools.

From the IB website, Investors' Marketplace is available by clicking the link at the bottom of any page. Browse the different categories of service providers and, when you find a service provider with whom you want to do business, you can contact the provider directly or log into Account Management to connect, depending on the type of service provider.

In Account Management, search for service providers from the Investors' Marketplace > Search Services menu. Service providers available to Hedge Funds are organized into categories:

• Research -Search for and connect with third-party providers of institutional-caliber research directly in the Trader Workstation trading platform; educators who have expertise in trading, specific products and other topics; and news wires and research feeds for Trader Workstation.
• Technology - Search for and connect with large and small third-party vendors who have potentially complementary software programs to expand the functionality of TWS, and programming consultants who may be able to assist API and FIX CTCI customers by offering their programming expertise.
• Administration - Search for and link to registered Administrators, third-party compliance firms, and manage your linked Administrators.
• Business Development - Search for and connect with third-party providers of advertising and marketing services, financing firms, business analysts, and individual job seekers.

Hedge Funds who also provide research, technology, business development services or have open positions to fill can advertise those services on Investors' Marketplace from within Account Management. Advertise these services from the Investors' Marketplace > Advertise Services menu in Account Management.
