Accelerating innovation with Liquidnet Primary Markets

Leveraging our strong grounding in the secondary market, Liquidnet is now helping to accelerate innovation in the primary markets, with a goal to become the first electronic unconflicted agency broker to provide an end-to-end workflow solution for the full life cycle of a bond.

Liquidnet Primary Markets is the first step towards this goal and represents two new offerings:

A Debt Capital Markets (DCM) workflow for New Issue Announcements
A trading protocol for New Issue Trading

Integrated into the existing Liquidnet Fixed Income desktop trading application, creating a seamless user experience from primary to secondary trading.
