Block Trades

Many community banks have concerns that sellers of large blocks of stock may greatly depress the value of their stocks if not handled properly.

Monroe has many years of experience in executing large trades in thin markets with minimal impact. Our block traders have established a large network of buyers and sellers, enabling us to trade blocks of stock in a discrete manner. As a result, owners of large blocks of community bank stocks routinely approach Monroe directly for the best execution
of transactions.

In 2006, we executed block trades totaling over $100 million dollars.

We will provide a competitive quote for any community bank stock in the country, even if the stock is not listed or quoted on any exchange. We can and do provide market making services for privately owned banks as well.
