About RFQ-hub
RFQ-hub is an electronic bilateral request-for-quote (RFQ) and electronic trading platform for listed and OTC derivatives. It covers global markets for listed and OTC equity and fixed income derivatives including futures, options, convertibles, ETFs, equity swaps and CDS. RFQ-hub automates the often manual RFQ process by enabling fund management firms to send RFQs and receive competing, tradable quotes electronically from RFQ-hub’s interface or their own systems. Using RFQ-hub reduces the amount of time spent by dealers on quotes and minimises errors by automating the process. Once executed by the counter-party, the trade record can then be sent electronically to downstream systems via RFQ-hub's API or over a FIX network.
RFQ-hub will help prepare the way for increasing regulation in the derivatives markets. It especially helps buy-side dealers, traders and fund managers with pre-trade transparency and price discovery. All interactions are recorded for later review helping, amongst other things, with trade compliance and demonstrating best execution.
