    Chris Concannon, President and COO of MarketAxess commented
    :

    “We registered strong, broad-based estimated market share gains versus the prior year in most product categories, including record estimated share in municipals, reflecting our strong product and geographic diversification, and we delivered another monthly volume record for Portfolio Trading.

    Open Trading estimated transaction cost savings2 were a total of $75 million in July, which equates to approximately $1,123 per million saved for our clients. Year-to-date estimated transaction cost savings2 are now approximately $514 million, 40% above the prior year, reflecting the powerful benefits of our unique, all-to-all liquidity pool.

    We believe the investments we have made to expand our product and geographic footprint, including emerging markets local markets, U.S. Treasuries, municipals and  portfolio trading will continue to pay dividends in the coming quarters.”
