What is Fixed Income trading?

Issuers, investors and intermediaries all play a vital role in the fixed income securities market. Fixed income trading involves the buying and selling of fixed income securities by fixed income investors. Fixed income securities include bonds such as investment-grade or high-yield corporate bonds, government bonds and inflation-linked bonds. Loans, interest rate swaps and asset-backed securities including mortgage-backed securities are also considered as types of fixed income securities.

Our solutions help fixed income traders on both the buy-side and sell-side to manage credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk for their fixed income securities.
