The utilisation of axes, revealing a trader’s interest in buying or selling a security, is gaining prominence in fixed income markets. As market participants increasingly incorporate axes into various investment strategies, the demand for accurate and detailed axe data continues to rise. Traders, portfolio managers, and liquidity providers find axes invaluable for executing larger orders, minimising market impact, and optimising investment views. Despite the evolving landscape, the reliance on current market makers remains pivotal, with axes playing a crucial role in navigating the challenges of fragmented markets and diminished liquidity.
