MarketAxess Announces Monthly Volume Statistics for September 2022

MarketAxess Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: MKTX), the operator of a leading electronic trading platform for fixed-income securities, and the provider of market data and post-trade services for the global fixed-income markets, today announced monthly trading volume for September 2022 and preliminary variable transaction fees per million (“FPM”) for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.1

Chris Concannon, President and COO of MarketAxess commented:

“Increasing momentum through the quarter, culminated in a record week of trading at the end of September, driving 20% growth in total credit, and estimated market share above 20% across three major product areas for the month and for the first time in our history. These results reflect the benefit of the investments that we have made to diversify our franchise and grow our international business.

Open Trading estimated transaction cost savings3 were a total of $260 million in 3Q22, which equates to approximately $1,141 per million saved for our clients. Year-to-date estimated transaction cost savings are now approximately $699 million, 57% above the prior year, reflecting the powerful benefits of our unique, all-to-all liquidity pool.

The strong September helped drive record estimated market share in high-yield, Eurobonds and municipals in 3Q22, reflecting the increasing strength of our franchise.”
