During October 2015, overall average revenue per share increased more than 10% compared to the level in the third quarter of 2015, due in part to an increase in trading volume from buyside clients. Average daily volume during the last week in October was approximately 10% higher than the average for the full month.

 

International Trading Activity

 

The average daily trading commissions in October 2015 in ITG’s Canadian, European and Asia Pacific businesses were up a combined 2% compared to the third quarter of 2015 and were up 20% over the average from August and September 2015.

 

These statistics are preliminary and may be revised in subsequent updates and public filings. U.S. volume statistics are posted on the investor relations section of ITG’s website, investor.itg.com and are available via a downloadable spreadsheet file.
