The Desk - Technology & The Evolution of FI Trading

Some short excerpts -

"The fixed income and derivatives market is evolving, rapidly migrating away from the phone onto electronic venues. Electronic trading satisfies the requirement to capture accurate data and report it to regulators and compliance departments, combined with the need for liquidity, and the demand for increased efficiency in the middle- and back-office."

Looking forward, "...we expect to see more e-trading in fixed income and market fragmentation continuing, meaning a focus on managing connectivity.....Automating workflows will drive the wider adoption of electronic trading for many in the market. Workflow efficiency may not be the most interesting topic, but it cuts costs and reduces errors, which will ultimately improve trading profits."
