Proprietary trading also nostro trading and, in older documents, also proper trading (proprietary trade[ing]; business for one’s own account)

Trading by a bank in financial products for its own account, as opposed to commission or contract trading. – As a result of supervisory measures, banks’ proprietary trading, which is in some cases highly risky, has been subjected to special monitoring worldwide. This has often led to these transactions being transferred to the shadow banking sector. For example, the entire proprietary trading team of Goldman Sachs in New York was spun off into a private equity fund. – See day trading, proprietary trading ban, proprietary trader, financial commission business, international business company, capital market, gray, nominee, offshore financial centers, parallel banking, regulatory arbitrage, self-entry. – Cf. Deutsche Bundesbank Monthly Report, September 2005, p. 21 (sharp decline in net income from these transactions at German banks).
