Our innovative central risk book approach helped clients after the trade tariff announcements in April 2025. Cash and credit default swap (CDS) spreads widened, but our teams were able to navigate these challenging market conditions through effective risk management and provide liquidity to clients when they needed it most.
Barclays’ market share has grown significantly. The US investment-grade e-trading market is an example where our algorithmic trading investments have improved us from 12th in overnight Asian markets to consistently ranking second1. Clients have praised our sharper pricing and partnership during periods of market volatility, reflecting our commitment to reliability and transparency.
This award from Risk.net recognises not only the team’s technical achievements but also the dedication to client partnership, market leadership, and continuous improvement. Barclays remains committed to driving progress in credit derivatives and supporting clients through every market environment.
