For the second time this week, stockbroker Hoodless Brennan added more silverware to their trophy cabinet. The small cap specialist picked up six awards at the 2008 Financial Times and Investors Chronicle Investment Awards: Best Execution Only Stockbroker, Best Online Stockbroker, Best Stockbroker for Cost, Best Stockbroker for Frequent Traders, Best Self-Select ISA, and Stockbroker of the Year 2008. It has been a bumper week for Hoodless Brennan; on Tuesday evening the broker picked up the Daily Telegraph award for Best Online Service for the second year running.
Hoodless Brennan is an independent stockbroker founded in 1992. It has witnessed the immense changes and technological advances wrought upon the industry. These awards clearly show how the broker has successfully combined online trading technology to offer value-for-money services to retail investors, whilst maintaining its traditional telephone advisory stockbroking service. CEO Geoffrey Hoodless explains:
“Our execution-only clients cut out the middle man and pay as they trade with a flat rate fee. There are a growing number of independent investors who like to have a DIY approach to their finances. Our clients are like individual entrepreneurs who balance risks and rewards themselves. Hoodless Brennan provides user friendly tools and service to our clients to manage their investment endeavours in a cost efficient way, and we continue to invest in this area. We are delighted that private investors who voted in Financial Times and Investors Chronicle Investment Awards have so comprehensively recognised our offering.”
Hoodless Brennan’s retail division offers a stockbroking service in a wide range of sectors to retail clients including smaller companies shares, execution only and advisory CFDs, and online ISAs. The wholesale division offers corporate broking services to small companies from pre-IPOs and IPOs, and works with small cap companies from all sectors.
Hoodless Brennan is holding a press briefing at the Marsh Wall offices at 11am on Tuesday 25th November.
