what is frontrunning? “It is the illegal practice of a broker executing orders on a security for its own account while taking advantage of advance knowledge of pending orders from its customers”. When orders previously submitted by its customers will predictably affect the price of the security, purchasing first for its own account gives the broker an unfair advantage.
example • broker buys ahead of large buy order • broker buys first • large buy order pushes up price • broker’s holdings increase in value • result • frontrunning starts to push up price, so firm does not get best price
