It looks as if increased regulation is having the intended effect:

Laurentian Bank of Canada intends to double the number of financial advisers and commercial account managers by 2020 as part of a plan to transform the Quebec lender from its traditional banking roots.

Laurentian, which for most of its 170-year history offered local banking to Montrealers, plans to have 700 in-branch advisers within three years as part of a shift away from routine teller services, Chief Executive Officer Francois Desjardins said in a March 24 interview at Bloomberg’s Toronto office.

Laurentian has 2,000 employees in its Quebec retail operations, including 350 in-branch advisers whose role includes helping customers with budgets, investment decisions and mortgages, Desjardins said.

PerpetualDiscounts now yield 5.13%, equivalent to 6.67% interest at the standard equivalency factor of 1.3x. Long corporates now yield about 3.95%, so the pre-tax interest-equivalent spread (in this context, the “Seniority Spread”) is now about 270bp, unchanged from the March 22 report.

Market Action

Profits from High Frequency Trading are getting harder to come by:

Revenues at HFT firms from U.S. equities trading were an estimated $1.1 billion last year, down from $7.2 billion in 2009, according to research firm Tabb Group.

Such strategies are more successful when markets are volatile, because big price swings offer traders more opportunities to capture profits. But volatility has come down drastically since the years just after the global financial crisis. The CBOE Volatility Index, or VIX, a measure of U.S. stock market volatility, has averaged just 11.6 so far this year, down from 24.2 in 2011, according to the WSJ Market Data Group.

It is an expensive arms race. When many high-speed traders got their start in the 2000s, the leading technology for transmitting data was fiber-optic cable.

But starting in 2010, the speediest firms began to use microwave networks, shaving milliseconds off the time it takes to transmit information on routes such as the Chicago-New York corridor. Upgrading to microwave networks—and later millimeter-wave and laser technology—added to the costs, traders say. All this hurt HFT firms’ bottom lines just as slumping volatility was eroding their top-line revenues.

HFT firms also grumble about mounting costs for the market data they buy from operators like the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Inc., as well as for co-location, the practice of putting a computer server directly in the exchange’s data center to cut down the time it takes to execute trades.

PerpetualDiscounts now yield 5.21%, equivalent to 6.77% interest at the standard equivalency factor of 1.3x. Long corporates now yield about 4.05%, so the pre-tax interest-equivalent spread (in this context, the “Seniority Spread” is now about 270bp, a significant widening from the 260bp reported March 15.
