Vertas Brokerage Consulting, a discrete unit of Percival Financial Partners Ltd., provides independent brokerage and transition management consulting with the exclusive purpose of helping institutional investors reduce the risk and costs in their trading of stocks and bonds. The team members at Vertas have over 100 years of collective experience in assisting investors in lowering their transaction costs.

Approximately ten years ago pension plans began the use of broker performance rankings to allow fiduciaries to select brokers in the same quantitatively based, fiduciary-compliant way they long selected asset managers and other professionals. Today, as market structures continue to evolve, Vertas presents new innovations, enhancing and developing new and better systems and processes for pension systems to navigate the modern fragmented trading universe through the use of venue-neutral order routing grounded in real time trade cost analytics. Now real time and historical broker and venue performance data can be merged to optimally source liquidity from more than forty-five execution venues, and attain truly "the very best" execution, without the conflicts and increased costs and risks inherent in legacy providers' business models.

With headquarters in Baltimore and professionals based in Philadelphia, New York, California, Michigan, Oregon and Florida, Vertas is an independent consulting firm specializing in minimizing the costs and risks of brokerage events. Independence, transparency, and value are our team's foundation. Let us bring those values to your pension system.
