These clients are often referred to as retail investors or traders. Retail brokers offer services tailored to the needs of individual investors, providing trading platforms, investment research, and other tools to help clients make informed decisions about buying and selling stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and other financial products. open an Account with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fpmarkets.com\/?redir=stv&amp;fpm-affiliate-utm-source=IB&amp;fpm-affiliate-agt=59003\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">FP Markets<\/mark><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, a non-retail broker would typically refer to brokerage firms that cater to institutional clients, such as hedge funds, pension funds, and other large-scale investors. Non-retail brokers also facilitate trading activities, but they focus on meeting the specific requirements and trading strategies of these institutional clients rather than individual investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, when distinguishing between retail and non-retail brokers, it&#8217;s primarily about the type of clients they serve rather than the services they provide in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the types of forex brokers?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>To keep things simple, it is first a good idea to understand that retail forex brokers come in two types: dealing desk (DD) brokers and no dealing desk (NDD) brokers. These can be further categorized into STP\/ECN brokers who come under non-dealing desk brokers like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fpmarkets.com\/?redir=stv&amp;fpm-affiliate-utm-source=IB&amp;fpm-affiliate-agt=59003\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\"><strong>FP <\/strong>Markets<\/mark><\/a> and market makers who fall into the dealing desk category.

The general term for them is B-book brokers. it should be noted that many of the brokers nowadays are B-Books brokers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Market makers earn money by adding a spread mark-up.
