The securities brokerage industry in the US includes about 23,000 establishments (single-location companies and units of multi-location companies) with a combined annual revenue of about USD 126 billion. Demand is driven by the returns on securities relative to alternative investments. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficient operations and good marketing. Large companies have economies of scale in operations and high name recognition. Small companies can compete effectively by offering better customer service.
Investors have different financial and investment needs and should choose their brokerage firms accordingly. Investors who desire advisory services may benefit from a full-service brokerage firm, which charges higher fees than other brokerages. Full-service firms charge either a flat fee based on the size of the account or commissions on the trades that they execute.
One of the major challenges for the securities brokerage market is online brokerages. These online brokerages charge lower fees and may suit investors who wish to conduct their own research, trades, and other account transactions. However, many also offer research and analysis tools to help investors make informed decisions. Many charge a per-transaction commission. Some charge no commissions.
