ICE Bonds has record trading volumes for corporate and municipal bonds in H1 2025.
A total US$120 billion in corporate bonds was traded on the ICE Bonds electronic execution platforms in the first six months of the year, the exchange reported, up 20% year-on-year (YoY).
In municipal bonds, US$109 billion was traded in H1 – up 35% YoY.
These results mark the fourth consecutive year of trading volume growth for these asset classes on the platform.
Peter Borstelmann, ICE Bonds president, commented, “This growth is in line with the progress we’ve made over the last few years expanding the functionality on our platforms and building out our institutional and wealth management network of customers.”
Recent additions to the service include spread-based click-to-trade orders, giving institutional clients access to retail-oriented execution protocols with greater risk management capabilities, and a new protocol allowing clients to send mortgage-backed security request-for-quotes in an anonymous trading pool through ICE Bonds’ alternative trading system TMC.
