MarketAxess is creating a more efficient bond market in the Asia-Pacific region by offering cutting-edge e-trading technology to access the deepest liquidity pool in global credit.
MarketAxess is the leader in electronic trading of credit. As an award-winning industry pioneer, MarketAxess has grown its global network to include Asia-Pacific central banks, sovereign wealth funds, pension funds and asset and wealth managers, enabling 24-hour access to the global markets.
