Tradeweb has launched a multi-asset package trading for USD-denominated swaps, marked by the successful execution of the first fully-electronic multi-asset package trade for USD-denominated swaps on the Tradeweb swap execution facility (TW SEF) between Barclays and a global hedge fund.
The multi-asset package functionality for USD-denominated swaps enables institutional clients on TW SEF to streamline the simultaneous execution of interest rate swaps, inflation swaps, and government bonds within a single trade.
This enhancement aims to deliver greater transparency, efficiency, and smarter analytics, while providing both dealers and buy side participants with access to deeper pools of liquidity on a single electronic marketplace.

鈥淭his milestone demonstrates how our continued focus on innovation is enabling greater automation, transparency, and flexibility in swap execution 鈥 and reinforces our commitment to driving the next chapter of advancement across the derivatives market.鈥
