They are one of the biggest and most successful ETF market makers, and their platform and expertise will enable us to continue to deliver improved bid-ask spread and overall liquidity of our ETFs listed on Europe’s major exchanges,” says Tabula CEO Michael John Lytle.
BNP Paribas has a global ETF market making operation to support clients using ETFs. This, and its strong investment in technology and infrastructure, means it can provide liquidity at competitive prices across asset classes. BNP Paribas has a leading position in Europe in fixed income and is leveraging that expertise to grow its fixed income ETF market making activity through efficient execution and electronic quoting.
