markets, today reported record total trading volume for the month

total ADV for the third quarter of 2024 was up 42.7% YoY.
Tradeweb CEO Billy Hult said: "Looking at trading volume for the
third quarter of 2024, this was our best quarter ever with record
volumes in multiple asset classes. Average daily volume for the
quarter climbed more than 55% YoY to a record $2.21tn (September
ADV was up more than 68% YoY to a record $2.63tn), reflecting
strong organic growth and solid contributions from our acquisitions
of Yieldbroker, r8fin, and ICD. As the leading electronic trading
marketplace for U.S. Treasuries and a global leader in swaps, we
remained focused on growing market share while also benefiting from
rates market volatility around central bank moves. Momentum in
credit volumes also remained strong, with record ADV for the
quarter in fully electronic U.S. high yield credit and record ADV
for September in fully electronic U.S. high grade credit. The third
quarter for Tradeweb culminated with broadly strong volumes in
September reflecting continued momentum across asset classes.”

Highlights
RATES
- U.S. government bond ADV was up 59.8% YoY to $232.2 billion
(bn). European government bond ADV was up 16.7% YoY to $49.5bn.
- Record U.S. government bond volumes were supported by record
ADV in our institutional business, as well as strong growth in
wholesale and retail volumes. Increased adoption across a wide
range of protocols and favorable market conditions contributed to
the increase in volume. The addition of r8fin continues to
contribute positively to wholesale volumes. European government
bonds reported strong double-digit volume growth, largely driven by
a 30% YoY increase in UK Gilts activity. We continued to see an
increased number of clients utilizing a variety of trading
protocols on the platform.
- Mortgage ADV was up 32.3% YoY to $240.2bn.
- Strong activity was driven by heightened volatility surrounding
a pivotal September Fed meeting. Specified pool volumes reached a
new record, surpassing the previous peak in August, driven by
robust trading activity.
- Swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year ADV was up 73.1% YoY to $576.3bn and
total rates derivatives ADV was up 79.1% YoY to $1.02tn.
- Strong volume in swaps/swaptions was driven by strong client
demand around the September Fed meeting. Market volatility and
hedging needs continued to be a focus across the overall market.
Compression activity, which carries a lower fee per million,
increased 95% YoY. 3Q24 compression activity as a percentage of
swaps/swaptions was lower than 2Q24. Clients continued to utilize
the request-for-market (RFM) protocol for risk transfers. Emerging
markets swaps growth remained strong.
CREDIT
- Fully electronic U.S. credit ADV was up 77.0% YoY to $8.6bn and
European credit ADV was up 27.9% YoY to $2.7bn.
- U.S. credit volumes were driven by increased client adoption,
most notably in request-for-quote (RFQ), portfolio trading and
Tradeweb AllTrade®. Tradeweb captured 18.1% and 7.4% of fully
electronic U.S high grade and U.S. high yield TRACE, respectively,
as measured by Tradeweb. European credit volumes were driven by
record volumes in European portfolio trading and increased adoption
of RFQ YoY.
- Municipal bonds ADV increased by 7.7% YoY to $385 million (mm).
- Volume growth outpaced the broader market, which was flat YoY,
led by strong retail activity which increased 10.4% YoY.
- Credit derivatives ADV was up 49.9% YoY to $54.9bn.
- Increased hedge fund and systematic account activity, along
with heightened credit volatility, led to increased swap execution
facility (SEF) and multilateral trading facility (MTF) credit
default swaps activity.
EQUITIES
- U.S. ETF ADV was up 2.7% YoY to $7.6bn and European ETF ADV was
up 39.8% YoY to $3.1bn.
- U.S. institutional ETF volumes were up 25.3% YoY and European
institutional ETF volumes were up 40.2% YoY, driven by a wide range
of clients using an expanded set of trading functionalities across
both platforms.
MONEY MARKETS
- Repo ADV was up 28.6% YoY to $681.0bn.
- A continued increase in client activity on Tradeweb’s repo
trading platform drove record global repo activity, led by record
U.S. repo activity and growth in EMEA repo activity. The
combination of quantitative tightening, increased collateral
supply, and current rates market activity shifted more assets from
the Fed’s reverse repo facility to money markets. Retail money
markets activity remained strong as the Fed cut rates in
September.
- Other Money Markets ADV was up YoY to $302.5bn.
- Other money markets volume growth was driven by the inclusion
of ICD volumes in September 2024.
