Euromoney’s Markets research provides unmatched insight into the capabilities and competitive dynamics shaping global trading and foreign exchange. Our research examines execution quality, client coverage and platform strength to reveal what defines leadership today. It enables you to benchmark your market positioning through FX spot volume data, identify gaps and strengths, and prioritise investments in products, regions and technology that deliver the greatest impact.

Addressing your challenges

Competing for scale in a concentrated FX market

Liquidity is concentrating within fewer banks while pricing power depends on scale. Our research gives you a clear, comparative view of where leading franchises stand globally and regionally, helping you calibrate strategy and resource allocation.

Proving execution quality beyond headline volumes

Clients demand certainty, speed and service – not just volume. Our research shows which franchises truly lead on execution and coverage, giving you an external lens to validate performance and sharpen your differentiation story.

Defending wallet share amid electronification and non-bank competition

Wallet is consolidating as clients seek seamless electronic execution and post-trade efficiency. Our research reveals where leaders excel in FX and client coverage, helping you defend share and target growth segments.

Prioritising investment in platforms and infrastructure

Banks are investing heavily in FX, data and workflow automation without clear external benchmarks. Our analysis highlights best practice and emerging priorities, guiding smarter resource allocation and platform strategy.
