French holding company controlling Compagnie Financiere Tradition, a global interdealer broker for fixed income, FX and derivatives.
Earns what its Swiss-listed subsidiary Compagnie Financiere Tradition earns: commissions on trades it arranges between banks, paid whether the trade is done by phone or on screen, so trading volumes and market volatility drive the result. Viel's own role is that of a controlling holding company.
In one line: Holding company behind an interdealer broker like BGC/Tradition.
Moat: narrow (network effects, installed base). Deep dealer relationships and liquidity network, but broking is commoditizing with electronic trading.
Headquarters: Paris, France · Founded: 1976 · Employees: 2,575
