The report captures more than 80% of all secondary bond market transactions (both corporate bonds and sovereign bonds) reported in the EU and UK over the period January through June 2022. It is therefore relatively representative of the aggregated bond market data as reported under the MiFID II/MiFIR obligation.
ICMA has published the first semi-annual report providing detailed data on the EU and UK bond market trading landscape. The report was produced in collaboration with Propellant digital.
One of the core
objectives of MiFID II/MiFIR was to provide greater public transparency
of secondary trading activity in the EU and UK markets. As solutions
have evolved to consolidate the disperse sources of public data, ICMA
has sought to leverage the capabilities of such initiatives to provide a
detailed and holistic view of bond market activity in the EU and UK.
ICMA
intends to update the report on a semi-annual basis in order to be able
to track long-term trends in secondary bond market structure and
activity. ICMA also expects that in time both the depth and quality of
the underlying data will improve, particularly as reports such as this
seek to present a definitive picture of the European bond markets.
