PROFILE |
 |
Is there a future for Alaron.com Holding? It's the parent of Alaron Trading, which provides discount and full-service futures and options brokerage and managed futures accounts. Customers include investors and "introducing brokers" who funnel clients to it. Alaron neither trades nor clears its deals; it maintains accounts and relays orders to floor traders. Capitalizing on the rise of Internet stock trading, Alaron began offering online order entry, research, and information, creating the sexy Alaron.com parent in 1999. Founder Joel Greenberg combined parts of the middle names of his children, Carrie, Michael, and Steven, to name the company; the family will control about 75% of the company's votes after the IPO.
