What Northeast Securities does

Jilin state-backed full-service securities brokerage offering brokerage, investment banking and asset management.

Earns commissions on customer trades, interest on margin loans and returns on its own investment book, with underwriting and advisory fees as the smaller part, so profits swing with stock-market turnover and prices. Jilin province's state-owned system backs it.
