December 2025 Highlights

RATES

• U.S. government bond ADV was up 5.7% YoY to $222.1 billion (bn). European government bond ADV was up 46.5% YoY to $53.4bn.
  • U.S. government bond ADV was led by strong growth in the institutional client channel. European government bond ADV was driven by strong volumes across our institutional and wholesale client channels. Strong activity in the U.S. and Europe was supported by an increased number of clients trading across a diverse set of trading protocols.
• Mortgage ADV was up 10.0% YoY to $220.2bn.
  • The increase in To-Be-Announced (TBA) activity was primarily driven by an uptick in trading from real-money accounts and increased dollar roll activity. Tradeweb’s specified pool platform saw strong ADV growth of over 20%, supported by ongoing expansion in client and dealer participation.
• Swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year ADV was up 39.5% YoY to $572.4bn and total rates derivatives ADV was up 64.5% YoY to $1.1tn.
  • Swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year saw a strong increase in risk trading activity YoY driven by a positive outlook on the U.S. macro environment and the continued shift in central bank policy, as well as a 34% YoY increase in compression activity, which carries a relatively lower fee per million (FPM). 4Q25 compression activity as a percentage of swaps/swaptions ≥ 1-year was higher than 3Q25.

CREDIT

• Fully electronic U.S. credit ADV was up 8.1% YoY to $7.5bn and European credit ADV was up 16.6% YoY to $2.1bn.
  • U.S. credit volumes were driven by increased client adoption of Tradeweb protocols, most notably in request-for-quote (RFQ), Portfolio Trading (PT), and Tradeweb AllTrade®. Tradeweb captured a record 20.5% share of fully electronic U.S. high grade TRACE and 8.0% share of U.S. high yield TRACE, as measured by Tradeweb. We also reported 27.4% total share of U.S. high grade TRACE and 9.9% total share of U.S. high yield TRACE. European credit volumes were driven by a diverse set of trading protocols. Cash credit PT ADV decreased by 1% YoY, with non-comp PT ADV down 37% YoY. PT carries a relatively lower FPM as compared to the broader cash credit average, with non-comp PT carrying a lower FPM than PT overall.
• Municipal bonds ADV was up 10.4% YoY to $509 million.
  • Municipal bonds reported strong growth across the retail and institutional platforms, outpacing the broader market, which was down 1.9%² YoY.
• Credit derivatives ADV was up 4.1% YoY to $11.1bn.
  • Increased hedge fund and systematic account activity YoY, along with heightened credit volatility, led to increased swap execution facility (SEF) and multilateral trading facility (MTF) credit default swaps activity.

EQUITIES

• U.S. ETF ADV was up 9.2% YoY to $10.3bn and International ETF ADV was flat YoY at $3.3bn.
  • U.S. ETFs reported strong growth YoY across our institutional and wholesale offerings. On the institutional side, adoption of our automated rules-based RFQ protocol continued to grow, accompanied by an expanding client base. On the wholesale side, our client base also expanded and we saw higher market volatility YoY.

MONEY MARKETS

• Repo ADV was up 15.6% YoY to $787.7bn.
  • Record global repo trading activity was supported by increased client participation across the platform. In the U.S., strong growth was driven by the effects of the Fed’s balance sheet unwind. Additionally, balances in the Fed’s reverse repo facility (RRP) remained close to zero for a majority of the month, with a small spike at month end. In Europe, strong activity was driven primarily by dealers actively managing balance sheet and regulatory constraints into year-end, with funding levels remaining orderly.
• Other Money Markets ADV was down 2.3% YoY to $297.0bn.
  • Other money markets ADV declined primarily due to ICD as energy and utility clients deployed liquidity to fund infrastructure projects and ongoing shareholder returns.

Basis of Presentation
All reported amounts are presented in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated. In determining the reported U.S. dollar amounts for non-U.S. dollar denominated securities, the non-U.S. dollar amount for a particular month is translated into U.S. dollars generally based on the monthly average foreign exchange rate for the prior month. Volumes presented in this release exclude volumes generated by (i) unbilled trial agreements, (ii) products billed on an agreement basis where we do not calculate notional value, and (iii) products that are not rates, credit, equities or money markets products. Please see the footnotes on page 3 of the full report for information regarding how we calculate market share amounts presented in this release.

Amounts for preliminary average variable fees per million dollars of volume traded and preliminary fixed fees for rates, credit, equities and money markets included in this release and in the related report are subject to the completion of management’s final review and our other financial closing procedures and therefore are subject to change.

Beginning with the publication of the December 2024 Monthly Activity Report, Tradeweb adjusted its methodology for reflecting acquisitions in its reported average daily volume figures. For average daily volume derived from acquisitions, the denominator is now the number of trading days that have elapsed from the acquisition date to the end date of the reporting period, and not the total number of trading days in the reporting period, which was the previous methodology. Beginning in December 2024, this methodology was applied retroactively to restate the impact of both 2024 acquisitions; the average daily volume attributable to acquisitions occurring prior to 2024 was not restated.
