Growing Business to Reach Wider Clients across the World
In November last year, TP ICAP witnessed an increase in its revenues, particularly its commodities and energy business, which boomed on the back of the wider power crisis. Many households suffered from increasing energy prices last year. Clients sought to hedge against moves in oil, gas and other commodities, while energy traders made profits in the form of bonuses.
TP ICAP is the name given to the brokerage that was formed when Tullett Prebon made the acquisition of its rival ICAP’s voice-broking and information business in December of 2016.
In December last year, TP ICAP added Virtu Financial and Jane Street to the list of its liquidity providers to enable TP ICAP digital assets spot platform to provide tight pricing and have an efficient post-trade infrastructure. Last month, TP ICAP started offering crypto-linked exchange-traded products (ETPs) to its clients in Europe.
