Order execution policy

Newton places and executes orders across multiple asset classes, including equities, derivatives, fixed income, collective investments and currencies.

When we execute orders, MiFID II requires us to take all sufficient steps to obtain the best possible result for our clients, taking into account price, costs, speed, likelihood of execution and settlement, size, nature, or any other consideration relevant to the execution of the order. This applies whether we are executing orders on behalf of clients, or placing orders with/passing orders to others for execution.
