Trading, analytics, and risk management system provider, ION Markets, has connected its LatentZero buy-side clients to the UBS Bond Port trading platform. Bond Port is now accessible to all buy-side clients through the LatentZero order management systems (OMS), providing more trading flexibility and anonymous access to the liquidity pool it offers.

With connectivity to Bond Port, ION’s LatentZero clients can access a liquidity network of 2,500+ clients in over 65 markets according to ION, with firm pricing in over 25,000 instruments, trading in 19 currencies. Client liquidity is integrated with external venues, regional dealers, and alternative providers so that users can potentially access a range of trading protocols and an aggregated view of the current market.
