ABOUT US:

Velocity Clearing began in 2003, providing third-party security locate services. We saw the challenge clients experienced when dealing with multiple companies to reach their goals. We sought to build a streamlined system that integrated all aspects of their trading experience into one full-service firm.

Velocity has since created a robust trading product and service ecosystem including stock locate, securities borrow coverage, clearing infrastructure, competitive financing, in-house trading desk, and full support client services.
