Tradeweb's diversified offering across products, geographies and client sectors supported double-digit growth, amidst a complex macroeconomic background driven by evolving central bank policy, sustained elevated volatility, economic concerns and a stronger dollar.

RATES

    • Client engagement in U.S. government bonds across institutional and wholesale markets remained high, while higher interest rates drove strong growth in the retail market. European government bond trading remained elevated amidst heightened rates market volatility.
  • Mortgage ADV was down 7.9% YoY to $157.1bn.
    • Risk-off sentiment and declining issuance weighed on trading activity and sector performance.

    • Swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year volumes were supported by robust trading in global inflation swaps, strong activity in emerging markets swaps, increased engagement from international clients and robust client interest in the request-for-market (RFM) protocol. Ongoing market focus on evolving central bank policy continued to buoy overall market activity.

CREDIT

  • Fully electronic U.S. Credit ADV was up 14.8% YoY to $3.5bn and European credit ADV was down 9.6% YoY (up 4.8% YoY in EUR terms) to $1.0bn.
    • U.S. and European credit volumes reflected continued client adoption across all Tradeweb protocols, including request-for-quote (RFQ), Tradeweb AllTrade, sessions-based trading and portfolio trading. U.S. High Grade activity was buoyed by a pick-up in sessions-based trading and voice trade processing, while heightened volatility weighed on overall market activity in U.S. High Yield and European credit. Tradeweb captured fully electronic share of U.S. High Grade and U.S. High Yield TRACE of 13.2% and 5.2%, respectively.
  • Municipal bonds ADV was up 100.3% YoY to $345 million (mm).
