Parsian Brokerage Company

What Parsian Brokerage Company does

Parsian Brokerage Company (کارگزاری پارسیان) is an Iran-domiciled, privately held brokerage firm founded in 2005 (1384 Iranian calendar) and operating as a subsidiary of Parsian Financial Group (گروه مالی پارسیان). The firm provides execution and related services across four Iranian capital market venues — Tehran Stock Exchange, Iran Fara Bourse, Iran Mercantile Exchange, and Iran Energy Exchange — covering equities, commodities (metals, petrochemicals, agriculture), energy, futures, and options. Its core proprietary technology is the Patris (پاتریس) web and mobile trading platform, which aggregates multi-exchange access with automated order submission, technical-analysis watchlists, and sector-based portfolio views; mobile apps on Android and iOS extend this to smartphones, and a separate downloadable technical-analysis tool (RayanTrader) supports advanced charting.

Distribution is multi-channel: physical branches (Tehran HQ on Jalal Al-e-Ahmad Highway, Shiraz, Kish), call-center trading, the Patris web platform, and mobile apps. Customer mix is horizontally segmented into retail investors (primary) and institutional clients (corporates, funds), with services ranging from standard execution to IPO advisory and listing consulting. The firm holds the full set of Iranian capital-market licenses, was ranked among the top-10 brokerage companies in Iran for year 1403 (2024) by the Brokerage Companies Association, and is a 2018 FEAS Champions League bronze medalist.

Revenue is generated primarily through (1) brokerage commissions on executed securities, commodity, and derivative orders, and (2) interest income from a margin-lending / financial-credit book priced at a 30% annual base rate (from Azar 1403 / November 2024) with turnover-tiered variation. The firm cross-sells and is operationally coupled with sister entities Bank Parsian, Parsian Insurance, Lotus Investment, Parsian Leasing, and Parsian Exchange within the parent group's 'Four Markets Financial Supermarket' (چهارسوق مالی پارسیان) concept. Revenue and headcount figures are not publicly disclosed; the firm reports a core headcount figure of 15 in the input data (likely a partial/agent-adjusted count given multi-branch operations), and its services are restricted to the Iranian domestic market.
