Link-Markets

Link-Markets is a name that points straight at trading or market-access services, usually the kind of thing people approach when they want a broker-style gateway rather than a bank branch. By our assessment, that makes its likely appeal the familiar one of fast access to markets, but also the familiar risk that the public face says more than the underlying operation. Companies in this space can be useful if they provide straightforward market links and account tools, yet they often feel thin if what you really want is a broad financial institution with deeper support. Link-Markets sits in a very competitive field where the difference between a plain trading venue and a polished sales pitch can be hard to read from the outside. The practical test is whether the service actually gives clear market access and order handling, because that is the only part of the name that matters.
