Tradeweb won Best Fixed Income Trading Platform at the 2021 Markets Choice Awards.

Markets Media caught up with Tradeweb President Billy Hult to learn more.

What is your reaction to Tradeweb winning Best Fixed Income Trading Platform in the 2021 Markets Choice Awards?

I’m delighted for our team! This recognition is a testament to the record growth that we continue to see on our platform, and we are honored to accept this award. This past quarter alone we’ve averaged more than $1 trillion per day in trading volume, and we only expect these heightened volumes to continue as more of our clients try new electronic tools and protocols.

What are Tradeweb’s primary 2020 and 2021 initiatives in terms of moving the business forward?

Our clients come first, and we are constantly searching for ways to make trading more efficient for our clients. We will continue to collaborate with them on what they may need in the future to move our business and markets forward.

How has Tradeweb helped support trading clients in their adjustment to remote work since March 2020?

Tradeweb’s approach has always been to meet our clients where they are today, and while that certainly took an unexpected turn at the beginning of the pandemic in March 2020, we have continued to support trading clients throughout every situation the past year has presented. Even during the global virtual environment, we have been successful in innovating and collaborating with our clients through enhanced trading protocols and tools. And our goal is to keep earning that business every day.
