“Tradeweb surpassed $300 million in quarterly revenue for the first time in our history, showcasing the diversity of our business with strong contributions from rates, credit, and equities. Increased rates volatility in the first quarter of 2022 contributed to record volumes in U.S. Treasuries, European government bonds, and swaps. Credit delivered a record revenue quarter driven by broad-based product growth and strong corporate bond client engagement across RFQ, Tradeweb AllTrade, and Portfolio Trading – which saw a 60% YoY increase in the number of firms using the tool,” Lee Olesky, Chairman and CEO of Tradeweb Markets, said.
