Hammer Partners provides research products to institutional clients and wants to strengthen its execution services through the partnership with Neonet. Hammer Partners clients can elect to use Neonet as their execution broker, giving them unmatched execution quality thanks to Neonet's pure agency status and transparent smart order routing.

"Neonet is an ideal execution partner for Hammer, as they provide access to a wide range of markets and do not engage in any proprietary trading activity. By outsourcing our execution requirements we can focus on our core business - providing research advice, and with Neonet onboard we can be confident that our clients receive superior execution quality as well", said Antonio Biffi, partner at Hammer Partners AS.

"Hammer Partners represents a good example of a number of players in the independent research and niche brokerage space that are increasingly looking at solutions to reduce their fixed costs and outsource their execution requirements. At Neonet we are focused on providing an efficient, neutral and transparent option for them", said Massimiliano Raposio, VP Sales at Neone
