Tullett Prebon is in talks with Icap to buy its global broking business.

Icap’s associated technology and broking platforms would be sold to Tullett Prebon as part of the deal, according to the statements.

Tullett Prebon would issue new shares to Icap’s shareholders, giving Icap a minority stake in Tullett Prebon.

Both sides were very clear in their statements that nothing has been confirmed.
