This addition marks the latest enhancement to TradeSmart Fixed Income, following the recent integration of LTX, an AI-powered trading platform, and a connection to ICE Bonds for improved access to fixed income execution protocols and liquidity. The developments aim to bolster pre-trade transparency and price discovery for mutual buy-side clients within their existing workflows.
