TD Ameritrade achieves “exceptional results”
Commenting on the results, Steve Boyle, interim president and chief executive officer, said in the statement: “Our results were exceptional. We’re very pleased with the growth in clients and assets which is indicative of the strength of our value proposition in an ‘all else equal’ marketplace.
“Earnings increased year-over-year despite the move to zero for most trades and zero interest rates. We again delivered double-digit net new client asset growth reflecting the appeal of our offerings to both retail and institutional clients. In the quarter, we launched thinkorswim Web with access to equity and derivative trading from any modern internet browser, fulfilling clients’ desire to access our award-winning trading technology with a fully synchronized experience on any device, wherever they may be.
“With one quarter still to go, we are approaching 2 million new funded accounts fiscal year-to-date, breaking our previous record of 1.3 million new funded accounts in fiscal year 2018.”
