FX HedgePool

FX HedgePool is an award-winning matching engine for the mid-market execution of FX swaps. Its platform has transformed FX through the breakthrough unbundling of liquidity from credit - unlocking vast potential for passive hedgers to provide liquidity to their peers, and for banks to further monetize their balance sheets. Backed by a growing community of top buy-side and sell-side institutions, FX HedgePool has created a new source of secure, anonymous, and dependable liquidity that eliminates pre-hedging risk for all.

FX HedgePool cuts out a substantial portion of external costs (e.g., technology, compliance, risk, etc.) that are factored into a price, enabling members to execute at a fixed spread off published mid on each liquidity event. This provides a safe harbor during periods of heightened volatility and insulates members from self-inflicted transaction cost increases, notably market impact.

FX HedgePool integrates as a matter of course with an array of buy-side OMS and FX EMS for a seamless, end-to-end operational experience.

FX HedgePool has created the first central marketplace for matching FX swaps, reducing
friction while streamlining key workflows. Until now, FX swaps were only traded bilaterally between the buy-side and the sell-side, requiring banks to price in market risk - resulting in fragmentation and high cost of risk transfer. FX HedgePool’s direct liquidity model
eliminates market impact, cuts trading costs, reduces tracking error, and lowers operational overheads.

FX HedgePool is hosted and offers a spectrum of integration and automation choices – from ‘low barrier to entry’ web GUI access through to SFTP and FIX API connectivity – and has been designed to facilitate swift, painless onboarding for buy-side members and sell-side credit providers alike.
