Tradeweb and LSEG’s FXall Collaborate to Launch FX Swap Workflow Solution for Local Currency Emerging Markets Bonds
8.8.2023 11:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Tradeweb Markets Inc. (Nasdaq: TW), a leading, global operator of electronic marketplaces for rates, credit, equities and money markets, today announced it has launched a new and innovative solution to help institutional investors trade Emerging Markets (EM) products more efficiently. Developed in collaboration with FXall - LSEG’s leading electronic platform for global currency products - Tradeweb’s FX Swap Workflow is a multi-asset digital solution linking trading workflows in local currency EM bonds and FX swaps through a single user interface (UI).
The new FX Swap Workflow solution allows mutual clients of Tradeweb and FXall to buy or sell an EM bond via the Request-for-Quote (RFQ) or Request-for-Market (RFM) protocols on Tradeweb and then seamlessly hedge the local currency risk by executing an FX swap trade via direct connectivity to FXall. Clients are able to request prices from multiple dealers simultaneously on both legs of the transaction, helping to achieve better real-time transparency and prove best execution. They also benefit from existing straight-through-processing (STP) channels, leading to greater automation and time-saving efficiencies.
“Facilitating the connection of our EM bond marketplace with FXall’s liquidity pool provides buy-side traders with access to enhanced and efficient local currency EM trading workflows,” said Enrico Bruni, Head of Europe and Asia Business, Tradeweb. “Clients trading EM products can now take advantage of markets that are increasingly interlinked, while also benefitting from seamless execution and STP. This latest innovation underpins our commitment to creating solutions that cater to the needs of our EM clients, and help them move risk more efficiently.”
“We are excited to provide our customers with an enhanced multi-asset integrated workflow, replacing what used to be either a voice-based process or a sequence of workflows split between different trading desks,” said Neill Penney, Group Head of FX, LSEG. “Greater collaboration between LSEG and Tradeweb has enabled us to offer our mutual clients an effective solution in FX Swap Workflow, with all the inherent advantages of electronic trading and our world-class liquidity pools.”
Morgan Stanley acted as the liquidity provider for the first transaction using Tradeweb’s FX Swap Workflow solution. Commenting on the transaction, Volkan Dikmen, Managing Director at Morgan Stanley, said: “We are supportive of new initiatives that help markets evolve and become more streamlined, so we are proud to provide liquidity for the first-ever trade bringing together EM bond and FX swap markets.”
Tradeweb offers global EM cross-product execution with comprehensive solutions across both bond and derivatives markets. Product scope includes EM IRS, CNY IRS via Swap Connect, hard and local currency bonds, portfolio trading for EM hard currency, EM credit derivatives, and CNY cash bonds via Bond Connect and CIBM Direct. More than 50 liquidity providers are currently supporting hard currency Asia, CEEMEA and LATAM bonds, many of which are also sending pre-trade streams and axes to facilitate smart dealer selection. Clients are able to trade EM bonds across 21 local currencies, with 11 more in the pipeline.
FXall is a leading electronic trading platform for global currency products. FXall is part of LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group), which is the majority stockholder of Tradeweb Markets.

The Only AI Crypto Lead Prioritization Solution Built With Law Enforcement, for Law Enforcement: Elliptic Launches Pulse24.9.2026 16:15:00 EEST | Press release
Elliptic, the global leader in on-chain risk, today launched Pulse. Pulse puts crypto lead prioritization directly in the hands of every frontline law enforcement and government officer. Crypto now touches every part of law enforcement, from the patrol officer on the street to the detective assigned to investigate the case. Pulse gives each of them a quick, accurate financial summary and a starting point: whether that's a crypto address on a suspect's phone, in a scam ATM victim's receipt, uncovered during a vehicle or pocket search, or found at the scene of an overdose, an arrest, or a seizure. An officer can input anything that looks like a wallet address or transaction hash. Pulse identifies it, reasons over the result, and returns a summary in plain language, enough for the officer to decide on the spot whether the case needs escalation. If a case needs further investigation, one click sends the full analysis forward, not just the evidence. The criminal investigations division gets
SymphonyAI Introduces Symphony Risk Intelligence, an Agent-native Platform That Unlocks Always-on Compliance™ — the Catalyst for Transforming the Financial Crime Operating Model24.9.2026 16:04:00 EEST | Press release
SymphonyAI today introduced Symphony Risk Intelligence (SRI), an enterprise-grade, agent-native platform built to unlock Always-on Compliance™. This is a critical shift from periodic to continuous risk and compliance management, in which institutions continuously reassess risk and adapt controls as regulations, threats and business activity change, rather than waiting for the next scheduled review. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260924914614/en/ Current approaches have reached their structural limits. The FinCrime Frontier 2026–27 Report, released recently by SymphonyAI and AML Intelligence, finds just 4.7% of financial institutions continuously update their compliance monitoring and controls as risk changes, and 76.3% still review alerts manually or with only partial automation — barely changed year over year. Yet standing still isn't an option: the regulatory climate is at a major inflection point across ev
Just 4.7% of Financial Institutions Continuously Update Their Compliance Monitoring and Controls as Risk Changes, New Research Finds24.9.2026 16:04:00 EEST | Press release
SymphonyAI, a global leader in vertical AI product platforms, and AML Intelligence, the leading source of news and insight for the financial crime compliance community, today released the FinCrime Frontier 2026–27 Report, finding that most financial institutions still rely on periodic review cycles to manage financial crime risk, even as the threats and regulations they are meant to track continue to evolve dynamically. Based on the perspectives of more than 200 financial crime and compliance leaders, including senior leaders from major global financial institutions, the research finds that just 4.7% of financial institutions continuously update their compliance monitoring and controls as risk changes, while 56.8% have not adopted always-on compliance monitoring at all, are only exploring it, or remain at an early, pilot-stage level. The finding points to a structural gap: financial crime typologies, payment ecosystems and regulatory expectations are evolving continuously, while most c
