Cantor has experienced continued business growth in both Equities and Fixed Income Prime over the past year . There has , the firm says , been “ a massive growth in the SPAC space as a Prime with Cantor getting a chunk of the business that was formally at CS ” as well as continued growth organically with clients across all strategies . Looking at its year-on-year scores , Cantor has seen its results improve both overall and in roughly two-thirds of service categories , most notably in OTC Clearing and Operations . All category averages are in the Good ( 5.00-5.99 ) or Very Good ( 6.00-6.99 ) range . The firm has also raised its game in Capital Introductions , moving from Satisfactory to Good – a development the firm attributes to its partnership with Layton Road , which began soon after the 2021 survey period . In addition , the firm has onboarded various large funds onto its platform since the last survey . “ Most of them are using the largest primes out there ,” the firm asserts , suggesting that these are the providers against which it is now being judged . “ The team here is great ,” says one US client . “ We were in a position of this being new to our firm and the team all got on the phone to walk us through the process and how everything works in detail , especially as it related to shorts and margin .”
