Embracing The New Fixed Income World

Sunday, January 10th, 2016


14:45 Oxford Style Debate: RFQ vs CLOB: Which will be the dominant model for fixed income trading?

The Request for Quote (RFQ) vs. Central Limit Order Book (CLOB) debate rages on, and as fixed income trading becomes more electronic, some believe that CLOB trading can become the dominant form of trading on platforms. Join this interactive debate on the divisive issue to hear both sides of the argument and decide for yourself which form of trading is best suited to your trading operations:

  • Is the evolution from RFQ to a CLOB natural, or is RFQ the best way of trading on fixed income platforms?

  • Do you get better liquidity from a Request for Quote (RFQ) model or a Central Limit Order Book (CLOB)?

  • Can RFQ models and CLOBs work in tandem with each other or will one version dominate fixed income markets?

  • Over the next 5 years, will a CLOB be the more favoured style of fixed income platform or is the RFQ model here to stay?
