Word origin

The term 'brokered' originates from the Middle English word 'brocour,' which means 'a small trader or dealer.' The word 'broker' itself is derived from the Anglo-Norman term 'broceor' and the Old French 'brokeur,' which implied a person who deals in commodities. Historically, brokers were individuals who facilitated transactions in marketplaces, often serving as intermediaries between buyers and sellers. Over time, the role of brokers expanded to include various sectors, such as finance and real estate. The concept of brokering has remained integral to trade and commerce, evolving with the development of markets and economic systems.
