The system maintains full price transparency with real-time offerings without intermediary mark-up or commissions.
“Bondtrac has been an innovation leader for web based bond information and we are excited to continue to lead the way while still being committed to providing open information, keeping the true buyer and seller together without adding costly intermediary charges. We give the bond market complete transparency while allowing dealers to trade directly with each other which always provides the lowest transaction costs to both seller and buyer,” said James A.

Bondtrac LiveNetwork suite of products include Professional, ProInvestor and a site soon to be released for individual investors, Bondtrac Investor, each geared to the needs of unique bond market audiences, from traders and dealers, financial advisors and buy-side professionals, to individual investors.
