Furthermore, Dealerweb’s market share of U.S. inter-dealer trading has grown to 18 percent since it launched its electronic central limit order book one year ago.
Overall U.S. repo volumes reached $3.8 trillion in May, which more than doubled year-on-year. Out of this figure, more than $2.1 trillion was traded on the electronic platform while average daily trading volume for voice brokered trades grew to more than $80 billion during the same period.

Tradeweb says that growing customer acceptance and rising market share boosted its U.S. Treasury marketplace volumes to a combined average daily volume of more than $35 billion.
In addition, Dealerweb's success suggests that the push to compete with interdealer brokers can be rolled out across other products, such as the wholesale U.S. treasury market, in which ICAP has a 60 percent market share.
