# Dash Financial Technologies

## Profile

Dash Financial Technologies is a U.S. **agency-only execution and analytics firm** focused on equities and options. The company emphasizes routing transparency, clear fee disclosure, and client-aligned execution — explicitly contrasting with the internalization / PFOF wholesaler model.

## Role in This Vault

Dash Financial was founded by [[entity-scott-darkside]] to operationalize [[concept-true-agency]] — proving that a fully transparent, client-first execution model is both possible and commercially viable in an industry dominated by opaque electronic market makers.

## Why It Matters

Dash is Scott's living proof-of-concept that Wall Street's dominant model is **inherently extractive** and that alignment with the client is structurally possible if a firm is willing to forgo PFOF and internalization revenue.
