4 Administration LCP will create a general RFP and systematically contact broker-dealers identified as minority. LCP maintains a client-provided MWDBVE universe and will use this as a starting point. The Fund will require the firm s compliance department to actively review and approve broker-dealers. LCP will be conscious of the added workload The Fund will require and will adjust accordingly. The Brokerage Committee will recommend to the Management Committee how many commission dollars to allocate to The Fund. These dollars will be used to calculate how many trades per quarter are available to eligible broker-dealers. Then LCP will determine how many trades constitute an acceptable sample to measure best execution. In the absence of this data, LCP will cycle through five new broker-dealers per period. Broker-dealers who successfully meet the minimum standards will be compared against all existing minority broker-dealers. The top performing broker-dealer during the review period will replace the worst performing current broker-dealer at the beginning of the next period. Broker-dealers lacking a minimum trading, operations, and technology infrastructure are ineligible for The Fund. At a minimum every execution-only broker-dealer will maintain its own trading desk, backoffice, Omgeo suite (Alert and Oasys), and infrastructure to add FIX connectivity. Also, each broker-dealer must satisfy at least three existing client mandates, meaning they must be approved by at least three distinctly separate LCP clients. These requirements are in addition to the existing compliance controls. These minimum requirements assure that our trading partners can match our capabilities and can interface seamlessly with our trading and operations departments. Compliance may make adjustments to the minimum requirements at its discretion in an effort to protect the firm from material loss.
5 Benchmarks Trading Benchmarks All broker-dealers shall be expected to outperform a VWAP less 12 basis points benchmark averaged over a minimum of five orders on a broker-dealer specific trade weighted basis. For example, if the VWAP of ORCL over the life of the order is $ , the broker-dealer will be expected to be no worse than $ , the difference between the VWAP and 12 basis points ($0.0223). Failure to meet the minimum expectation is cause for removal as a LCP active broker-dealer. Settlement Benchmarks Broker-dealers shall maintain a satisfactory settlement ratio as determined by LCP operations in conjunction with the Trade Support Issues log. Broker-dealers who consistently fail to settle trades on a T+3 standard or who have been documented to be unresponsive to LCP efforts to resolve outstanding issues will be removed as a LCP active broker-dealer. Removal from Fund Broker-dealers who fail to meet the minimum expectation will be removed as a LCP active broker-dealer. These broker-dealers will receive a formal letter explaining the rationale behind the removal. The broker-dealer may reapply to The Fund after one year. To reapply the broker-dealer will need to send a written explanation of the steps taken to resolve the issues that resulted in their removal. A broker-dealer who has been removed twice from The Fund will not be able to reapply. Only a corporate reorganization will merit potential reinstatement into The Fund process.
