We believe in a world which is increasingly fragmented, people want to trust their circle of connected relationships. AEGIS Markets is the trusted connector for the OTC commodity hedging community.
AEGIS Markets is a Swap Execution Facility (“SEF”) that delivers transparent execution of OTC swaps through an online Marketplace.
You create and submit a Request for Quote (“RFQ”) to one or more ISDA-facing Dealers. You choose the winner, the Dealer accepts, the trade is booked, you receive a Communication, and you can review Trade Insights.
Trade Insights are unique trade analytics. They track deals invited, participation, rankings, response times, win/loss ratios, and trading trends over time. This helps you manage your Dealer relationships.
Transparency. Efficiency. Nimbleness. Speed. More volume. Time savings. Less errors. Audit Trail. STP (see below). Execution savings. And boosts relationships by managing Participation data in Trade Insights.
Dealers have shared that price transparency on the platform sharpens the spread, delivering improved pricing to their clients.
Yes. While you can always continue to use old legacy methods for transacting swap hedges, the new process brings an array of benefits that make it easy to do your financial swaps online.

Yes, the Marketplace replicates the same process you use right now. You can invite any set of Dealers, and accept any price, even if it’s not the most attractive if you want to steer business to a particular counterparty.
AEGIS Markets is free for Market Participants. Your dealer pays a de minimis transaction fee only when they win a deal.
Dealers get access to clients like you on the platform, which helps them expand their business. They benefit from efficiencies such as STP and faster reporting.
