Ease of execution and high-quality customer service are hallmarks of Wood & Company's execution team. We understand that investing requires careful decision making, and that each client's approach may be different. Consequently, over the years Wood & Co. has become acutely sensitive to the diversity of its clients' financial objectives.

As a regional CE boutique, we aim to offer the best of both worlds: the insight of a local broker into the dynamics of these highly individual markets, plus the broader perspective and highest professional standards of our global peers.

Wood & Company is a founding member of the Prague Stock Exchange and has been a clear leader on the market since we executed the first-ever trade for a foreign institution on that exchange back in 1993. We consistently retain a circa 25% share in Czech secondary market trading, with rich experience in block placements.

The firm is also a member of the Warsaw, Budapest, Frankfurt and Vienna exchanges. As such, we are fully operational on those markets and able to execute trades for our clients just as a local firm would. An ever-increasing share of CE3 flow is handled by Wood & Co. Our clients also count on us for execution on diverse global markets, including the US, Russia, and Turkey.

Wood’s execution team owes its success to a loyal base of both local and international clients. In return, the team always strives to exceed its customers’ execution standards, and to provide the highest possible level of overall service. Our trading professionals are all fluent in English and possess long-term experience on the local CE markets. They maintain daily contact with the trading desks and decision makers of the firm's international and domestic clients in order to help interpret market movements.

The depth and excellence of Wood & Co.'s execution team is consistently put to the test to ensure liquidity. The financial media and industry participants continually recognize the firm’s expertise – but our clients are the ultimate judge. Thus, our services are always evolving to meet their needs. Our services currently include:

  • Specialized news-flow reports intended to support a client's investment decisions
  • Efficient execution on any of CEE local markets
  • Execution in local shares as well as GDR’s
  • Execution on any Western European markets including US
  • Leading market maker on SPAD (Czech market making system)
  • Effective settlement
