July 2025 ADV up 30.7% YoY

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 6, 2025-- Tradeweb Markets Inc. (Nasdaq: TW), a leading, global operator of electronic marketplaces for rates, credit, equities and money markets, today reported total trading volume for the month of July 2025 of $55.0 trillion (tn)¹. Average daily volume (ADV) for the month was $2.4tn, an increase of 30.7 percent (%) year-over-year (YoY). Excluding the impact of the ICD acquisition, which closed on August 1, 2024, total ADV for the month of July was up 17.2% YoY.

July 2025 Highlights

RATES

• U.S. government bond ADV was relatively flat YoY at $204.7 billion (bn). European government bond ADV was up 18.5% YoY to $50.9bn.
  • U.S. government bond volumes were supported by continued client engagement across a diverse set of trading protocols. Robust European government bond ADV was driven by strong volumes in our institutional and wholesale client channels.
• Mortgage ADV was up 14.3% YoY to $224.9bn.
  • The increase in To-Be-Announced (TBA) activity was primarily driven by an uptick in real-money trading activity YoY and increased trading volumes from mortgage origination clients. Tradeweb’s specified pool platform reported strong volumes driven by a growing number of clients executing on the platform, as well as the addition of new dealers to the platform.
• Swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year ADV was up 10.5% YoY to $388.5bn and total rates derivatives ADV was up 16.9% YoY to $785.2bn.
  • Swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year saw a strong increase in risk trading activity YoY driven by U.S. tariff and central bank policy speculation, as well as the broader geopolitical climate. This was partially offset by a 6% YoY decline in compression activity, which carries a relatively lower fee per million. July compression activity as a percentage of swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year was lower than 2Q25.

CREDIT

• Fully electronic U.S. credit ADV was up 21.0% YoY to $8.1bn and European credit ADV was up 33.4% YoY to $2.8bn.
  • U.S. credit volumes were driven by increased client adoption of Tradeweb protocols, most notably in request-for-quote (RFQ), Portfolio Trading (PT), and Tradeweb AllTrade®. Tradeweb captured 19.6% and 7.8% share of fully electronic U.S. high grade and U.S. high yield TRACE, respectively, as measured by Tradeweb. We also reported 28.7% total share of U.S. high grade TRACE and 10.3% total share of U.S. high yield TRACE. European credit volumes were driven by a diverse set of trading protocols, as well as continued strength in Tradeweb’s Automated Intelligent Execution (AiEX) tool. Cash credit PT ADV increased by 35.8% YoY, with non-comp PT ADV up 45.2% YoY. PT carries a relatively lower FPM as compared to the broader cash credit average, with non-comp PT carrying a lower FPM than PT overall.
• Municipal bonds ADV was up 36.0% YoY to $494 million (mm).
  • Municipal bonds reported strong growth across the retail and institutional platforms, outpacing the broader market, which was up 23.6% YoY.²
• Credit derivatives ADV was down 3.2% YoY to $10.5bn.
  • Lower credit market volatility led to subdued swap execution facility (SEF) and multilateral trading facility (MTF) credit default swaps activity.

EQUITIES

• U.S. ETF ADV was down 4.7% YoY to $7.6bn and European ETF ADV was up 29.4% YoY to $3.0bn.
  • Tradeweb’s global institutional ETF volumes increased YoY as more clients were onboarded to the platform and existing clients continued to increase their usage of Tradeweb’s AiEX tool. U.S. ETF wholesale volumes were lower YoY primarily due to a reduction in equity market volatility, which disproportionally impacts this business.

MONEY MARKETS

• Repo ADV was up 25.0% YoY to $777.3bn.
  • Global repo trading activity was supported by increased client participation across the platform. In the U.S., strong growth was driven by the effects of the Fed’s balance sheet unwind. Additionally, balances in the Fed’s reverse repo facility (RRP) remained at relatively low levels throughout most of the month, despite an increase into month-end. In Europe, volumes were driven by increased government bond issuance, as well as market volatility.
• Other Money Markets ADV was up YoY to $270.9bn.
  • Other money markets volume was driven by the inclusion of ICD volumes in July 2025.

Basis of Presentation
All reported amounts are presented in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated. In determining the reported U.S. dollar amounts for non-U.S. dollar denominated securities, the non-U.S. dollar amount for a particular month is translated into U.S. dollars generally based on the monthly average foreign exchange rate for the prior month. Volumes presented in this release exclude volumes generated by (i) unbilled trial agreements, (ii) products billed on an agreement basis where we do not calculate notional value, and (iii) products that are not rates, credit, equities or money markets products. Please see the footnotes on page 3 of the full report for information regarding how we calculate market share amounts presented in this release.

Amounts for preliminary average variable fees per million dollars of volume traded and preliminary fixed fees for rates, credit, equities and money markets included in this release and in the related report are subject to the completion of management’s final review and our other financial closing procedures and therefore are subject to change.

Beginning with the publication of the December 2024 Monthly Activity Report, Tradeweb adjusted its methodology for reflecting acquisitions in its reported average daily volume figures. For average daily volume derived from acquisitions, the denominator is now the number of trading days that have elapsed from the acquisition date to the end date of the reporting period, and not the total number of trading days in the reporting period, which was the previous methodology. Beginning in December 2024, this methodology was applied retroactively to restate the impact of both 2024 acquisitions; the average daily volume attributable to acquisitions occurring prior to 2024 was not restated.
