Celebrating 25 Years of FXall

FXall at 25: A legacy of innovation in FX trading

Twenty-five years ago, two traders executed the very first trade on a new platform – one that would go on to transform FX markets. That platform was FXall.

What began as a bold idea backed by seven leading global banks has grown into a cornerstone of modern FX workflows. This year, after 25 years of continued product innovation in lock step with the evolving needs of the market, FXall remains at the heart of the global FX community – trusted for transparency, efficiency, and deep liquidity.

To understand how we got here,you need to start backhere.In the time of multiplesimultaneous phone callsand mountains of manual trading blotters.That was until sevenleading banks came togetherto create a never seen beforesingle centralised multi dealer platform.The first trade executes in May 2001.By 2002,Euromoney told us we were number one.“Congratulations.It really helps usdo our daily tradesand that's a big comfort to us.So thank youand keep up the good work.”And from there, the milestones,the checkpointskeep coming.Altair, Quickfill, Accelor,the Hadron Collider.Okay, we didn't do that last one.“A big happy birthday to FXalland for all those who made it happen.”And major breakthroughskeep coming.We IPO in New York.And are bought by Thomson Reuters.And, as we listen to our partners,not just a tool which we can use today,we need a toolwhich we can use tomorrow as well.”Our ADV keeps climbing and as the worldgrows more connected,we grow more integrated.In 2021,more becomes possiblewith the LSEG acquisition.And while the ADV keeps growingand the ambition keeps growing,our founders will tell youthe ethos is the same as it ever was.“And thatcollaboration will remain central,as FXall movesto its next chapter.”Which brings us right back.25 years.“We have built that communityand that networkvery carefully at last 25 years,and I look forward to the next 25 yearsof really nurturing thatand making it even bigger.”And so many people to thank for joiningus on the journeyFXall 25 years and beyond.
