Three Years in a Row: Makor Wins EXEL Title for Best Special Situations Sales

London (ots/PRNewswire)

For the third consecutive year Makor Securities has placed first in the EXEL Investor Survey for 'Best Special Situations Sales' in the European region. The honour solidifies Makor's position as a global leader in Special Situations and Risk Arb. Once a breakthrough result, the consistent #1 ranking now acts as a resounding affirmation of Makor as a trusted brand amongst the investment community.

The recognition is much appreciated by Makor which has been working tirelessly for clients to provide excellent Risk-Arb Research, advice and execution over the years. With the arrival of MiFID II and other recent changes to the industry landscape Makor has redoubled its efforts to produce unparalleled content to ensure that investors are paying for a quality research product.

Co-founders Michael Halimi and Avi Bouhadana had this to say about the accolade: "This strengthens our conviction in our model, which delivers tradable real-time advice and research combined with efficient order management."

This model seems well suited to the current market environment. There has been no shortage of interesting merger activity this year, and Makor has armed investors with the tools to turn each situation into an opportunity.

Makor's unique approach, which increasingly utilizes data and new technology, has been met with enthusiasm by the risk-arb community. The firm has proven its ability to provide unmatched intelligence on companies involved in mergers thus giving investors the ability to effectively handle situations that effect significant price volatility on a security.

In receiving the #1 ranking for the third year in the row Makor renews its commitment to its clients. The firm is grateful for the award and will continue to test the limits of excellence in product and client service.
