Direct-Access Broker

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.06 sec.
Direct-Access Broker
A broker that provides transaction services predominantly or exclusively. That is, a direct-access broker provides clients with little or no research or investment advice; rather, he/she specializes in completing the transactions for which clients ask. Direct-access brokers usually rely on computer programs to find matching offers or bids. They usually charge lower commissions than other brokers and rely on a high volume of orders for a profit. See also: Deep discount brokerage firm.
