Description:
What is Disintermediation? The process by which an institutional investor withdraws its funds from intermediary financial companies, such as broker dealers, to invest directly is called disintermediation. Private corporations that may decide to setup an in-house investment department to clear directly and more efficiently handle its portfolio, such as in family institutions, will sometimes set up their own clearing and hire a portfolio manager who can execute trades directly with the Street.
