- Disclosure of accounting policy for the recognition and recording of fees paid to other broker dealers for executing trades. Broker-dealers often use other brokers to execute trades on their behalf. The trading broker-dealer becomes a customer of the executing broker-dealer and pays a floor brokerage fee. Such fees are paid periodically either directly to the executing broker-dealer or through a clearinghouse. These include fees paid to clearing brokers and market specialists.
