Wins overwhelmingly among non market-making banks, corporates and fund managers
Record monthly volumes cross $410 billion mark, with a daily average of $18 billion
New York, 14 April 2004 - FXall, the electronic portal for global foreign exchange trading, has been voted the number one multibank portal in The Banker's second annual FX rankings. The news of the award coincides with another record month for FXall. In March, total volumes at FXall reached $413 bn, representing an average of $18 bn per day.
More than 130 non market-making banks, corporates and fund managers from around the world were polled in The Banker's annual rankings. Respondents were asked to rank their top electronic trading portals, with points awarded on a sliding scale for first, second and third place. FXall led the field with 100 points, outstripping Currenex which received 33 points. State Street's FX Connect came in third with 13 points.
This is the latest in a series of accolades for FXall. Last month the portal was named number one multibank portal in the Global Investor survey for the third year running, widening the margin over second place finisher State Street's Global Link.
