In addition to assessing trade costs, clients can analyze daily executable volume and probability of execution to better inform their trading and portfolio construction decisions. Clients can also run scenario analysis by customizing their views on the bond spread and rating, which results in different cost, probability, and volume in potential trading outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>The model has been calibrated based on five years of historical trade information, proprietary to Bloomberg taking a variety of factors into account. These include: side and size of the order, the real-time Composite Bloomberg Bond Trader (CBBT) bid-ask spread, the amount outstanding, the rating and currency of the bond, and an additional overlay with the bond\u2019s age, term, and time to maturity.<\/p>\n<p>PGGM, a Bloomberg Transaction Cost Analysis (BTCA) solution customer, partnered with Bloomberg\u2019s trading quant research team to beta test Bloomberg\u2019s new pre-trade TCA function.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReliable pre-trade data for fixed-income is scarce, which makes price discovery and proving best execution a challenge,\u201d explained Jan-Theo Varkevisser, Global Head of Fixed Income Trading, PGGM. \u201cThe product provides us with trusted pre-trade price discovery and an automatic connection to post-trade analysis that ensures a valuable feedback loop for our traders to inform their trading decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This new model is integrated with BTCA, Bloomberg\u2019s multi-asset transaction cost analysis tool, significantly enhancing the solution to deliver pre- and post-trade intelligence. BTCA is integrated into the core Bloomberg offering to harness the company\u2019s breadth of market data, analytical tools, and trading workflows. Featuring exception-based workflow and customizable reporting, BTCA delivers information users need on demand, along with wide-ranging insight into trading-cost impact and decision support for comprehensive transaction surveillance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile trade cost models have become the norm in equities, developing a native model in fixed income markets is an exciting step forward to providing bond traders and portfolio managers with greater pre-trade intelligence.\u201d said Ravi Sawhney, Global Head of Trade Automation &amp; Analytics, Bloomberg. \u201cThe inclusion of pre-trade cost and probability estimates as part of the BTCA offering promotes market transparency and helps bond traders to make decisions that comply with their firms\u2019 best execution requirements. We look forward to being able to offer this and more pre-trade analytics into our suite of electronic trading products in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bloomberg subscribers can access more information via TCA&lt;GO&gt; on the Bloomberg Terminal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Bloomberg<br \/>\n<\/strong>Bloomberg, the global business and financial information and news leader, gives influential decision makers a critical edge by connecting them to a dynamic network of information, people and ideas.
