Wells Fargo brings its stage coach to the investing arena with a mid-priced online brokerage offering.

Wells Fargo (San Francisco, CA; $101 billion; 10 million ATM cards) added WellsTrade, a discount brokerage service, to its Web offerings. By Internet standards, the service is premium priced at $29.95 plus $0.03 per share after the first 1,000. But less-frequent traders likely to use a bank offering, aren’t likely to care about paying an extra $15 for a couple trades per year. Especially if the program is integrated with their bank account through online funds transfer. The company worked with Philadelphia-based BHC Securities to develop the online program.
Contacts: At Wells, Cliff Gerrish is Mkt. Mgr. Private Client Services; Dudley Nigg is EVP, (415) 477-1000.
