…although Thomson Reuters retakes the #1 Forex ECN title back from ICAP EBS.
Continuing the mixed-results FX volumes trend for March we’ve seen so far at the CME Group and at ICAP EBS, Thomson Reuters and its FXall unit each reported ho-hum FX volumes results in March. Thomson Reuters was actually down 4% from February at $131 billion per day, and FXall was flat at its still-all-time-record of $110 billion per day.
However, with rival ICAP EBS down 19% in March, Thomson Reuters retakes the #1 Forex ECN title from EBS. The two firms are locked in a back-and-forth battle to lead the industry.
Fairly soon, we expect to see Thomson Reuters and FXall formally merge their respective FX businesses, under the management of the FXall team.
