Bloomberg Wins Four Awards at the ETF Express European Awards 2022
March 28, 2022
Bloomberg is proud to announce that it has won four awards at this year’s ETF Express European Awards:
– Best Index Provider – Fixed Income ETFs
– Best Index Provider – Commodity ETFs
– Best ETF Platform
– Best OTC/Dark Pool ETF Execution Venue
Bloomberg has been voted “Best Index Provider” for the Fixed Income ETFs and the Commodity ETFs categories reflecting our commitment to providing clients with benchmarks that represent both the marketplace and investors needs for benchmarking, asset allocation and product creation. Bloomberg has developed a global family of fixed income indices that traces its history to 1973 and remains the most widely used in the industry for fixed income investors seeking objective, rules-based and representative benchmarks to measure asset class risk and return. The Bloomberg Commodity Index (BCOM) is a leading benchmark for the asset class and the firm continues to invest in the framework of the index to support clients now and for anticipated needs in the future.
“We have established many different client relationships across the globe and I believe our award win is a testament to our team in Europe who has been focused on those relationships and supporting their specific needs,” said Nick Gendron, Global Head of Fixed Income Index Product Management, Bloomberg Index Services Limited.
In addition, Bloomberg has won “Best ETF Platform” and “Best OTC/Dark Pool ETF Execution Venue”, highlighting our comprehensive ETF solution, which is underpinned by the news, data, pre-and post-trade analytics and communication tools across the depth and breadth of asset classes on The Terminal. With access to more than 90 liquidity providers through RFQe*, Bloomberg’s global ETF trading solution, “Clients appreciate Bloomberg’s depth of liquidity,” said Paul Kaplan, Global Head of Credit, Equities and Price Transparency at Bloomberg. “They also look to us to handle their vast number of transactions during times of extreme volatility and the quickly changing economic environment. They have all the necessary tools at their fingertips and can be quick to react.”
Each year, the ETF Express European Awards are designed to recognise excellence among ETF issuers and service providers in Europe across a wide range of categories, including equity, fixed income, commodity, smart beta, thematic, active and ESG. Nominated firms for the service provider categories are based on a widespread survey of more than 100 issuers and other key industry participants, and the voting for all of the winners is conducted via an online poll by the ETF Express readership, which is carried out over a period of several weeks.
