The alliance unites IHS Markit's multi asset TCA tool, independent bond pricing 
and liquidity data with Yieldbroker's six trillion of annual AUD and NZD market 
transaction volume. Together, these services offer customers sophisticated 
trade execution analytics and a broad spectrum of data to deliver more 
transparency in fixed income markets.

"This collaboration is a natural extension of our global, multi asset TCA 
offering to on and off-shore AUD and NZD fixed income market players," said 
Chris Pashley, managing director at IHS Markit. "We are committed to 
continuously enhancing our comprehensive suite of best execution solutions to 
help customers optimize their trading activity, gain new perspective on fixed 
income markets and reduce the cost and operational demands of compliance and 
regulatory reporting."

"Working with IHS Markit creates a compelling solution for institutions active 
in AUD and NZD fixed income markets," said Anthony Robson, CEO of Yieldbroker. 
"This partnership supports Yieldbroker's strategic intent to deliver our 
clients end-to-end trading workflow solutions. With IHS Markit as a partner, we 
can further improve secondary market transparency, analytics, and insights for 
the AUD and NZD fixed income markets."

Evolving market practices and regulations such as Australia's RG 97, Europe's 
MiFID II and PRIIPS have led financial institutions to become more programmatic 
in their oversight of trade execution quality.

Through the collaboration, common customers can receive:  

    --  Point-in-time execution price slippage benchmarking 
    --  Security level bid-offer spread data 
    --  Security level Liquidity Scoring 
    --  RG 97 reporting data 
    --  Broker-dealer performance analytics 
    --  Request-for-quote (RFQ) analytics 

Since 2011, IHS Markit has provided sophisticated tools for best execution and 
TCA, covering multiple asset classes, including equities, bonds, FX, bank 
loans, money markets, CDS and other OTC derivatives.
