A liquidity provider (LP) is a financial institution — typically a large bank, hedge fund, or prime broker — that supplies buy and sell prices for tradable instruments. In an STP model, the broker routes client orders to one or more LPs, who compete to offer the best available price. More LPs generally means tighter spreads and deeper market depth.
In an STP model, a broker receives buy and sell prices for EUR/USD from several liquidity providers and hedges client positions with them. At GCC Brokers, execution is electronic, typically takes 25–50 ms, and involves no manual intervention.
