Saitori
What Is a Saitori?
A saitori is a member of a Japanese stock exchange who is responsible for satisfying market-making obligations and executing orders for the benefit of stockbrokers. Their function is hence like the [specialists](/subject matter expert) of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
The majority of saitoris are employed by the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE), which is the country's largest securities exchange. On the Osaka Securities Exchange (OSE), the term "nakadachi" is utilized rather than saitori.

Saitoris are professional security trading intermediaries that help the members of a Japanese stock exchange. Their core liabilities are to work with the trading of securities by matching buy and sell orders and to give market-production services to increase liquidity and abatement volatility.

For instance, NYSE experts are not permitted to execute proprietary trades for their own accounts, or for the public overall. Saitoris, then again, generally don't face these limitations.

Alternately, on occasion when demand far overwhelms supply, saitoris will sell shares from their own inventory to add supply and assist with fulfilling this need.
In effect, saitoris play the job of coordinating the market action in each trading day. At the point when the exchanges open, saitoris are responsible for conveying the opening price quotations for the securities they cover.

In the NYSE, the job of experts has progressively lessened for completely automated electronic trading platforms. It is not yet clear whether a comparable change will happen in Japan, and what impact this could play with respect to a saitori.
