Hong Kong has a long-standing rivalry with Singapore as claimant to the primary financial hub in Asia Pacific.

In conjunction with a new office in Hong Kong, MarketAxess will allow users to trade local-currency bonds in Singapore dollars, Thai bhat and Indonesian rupiah from 10 market-marking dealers, bringing the total global currency markets with liquidity available on the platform to 22.

"MarketAxess is making a significant investment in Asia to both technology resources and local knowledge," says Kevin McPherson, global head of sales at MarketAxess. "As global credit market liquidity remains challenged, both buy- and sell-side clients are demanding solutions that provide better price discovery and access to more counterparties."
