Tradeweb Markets Inc. has announced the introduction of electronic portfolio trading for European government bonds, including UK Gilts, EUR, and single currency notes. This expansion builds on Tradeweb’s 2019 launch of portfolio trading for corporate bonds.
The service enables institutional traders to package multiple bonds into a single portfolio, negotiate pricing with one or more liquidity providers, and execute the trade in a single transaction. This approach aims to deliver improved risk management, lower market slippage, and streamlined execution. The first such transaction in European government bonds was executed between Legal & General and Citi. The solution supports both standard benchmarks and customised strategies, with features that help reduce operational risk and enhance execution transparency.
