EBS Platforms
EBS offers a variety of trading platforms to meet your FX and Money Market needs, whatever they may be. Whether you are looking for an anonymous matching platform or a private execution platform, EBS has what you’re looking for.
EBS Market
The award-winning anonymous FX matching platform, EBS Market, has been at the heart of the FX market for more than 20 years and remains the benchmark platform to access markets. The platform provides real-time and historical FX prices directly to your market data distribution platform.
Certainty of execution
EBS Market provides orderly, executable and genuine liquidity across all major and emerging market currencies.
Benchmark prices
Recognized as the benchmark for spot CNH, EUR, JPY, USD and CHF currencies, EBS Market provides insight into true market prices for spot FX, precious metals and NDFs.
Multiple execution styles
EBS Market provides advanced order types, including the EBS Iceberg Order, eFix Matching, Pip Discretion and Loop Orders for increased certainty of trade.
EBS Direct
EBS Direct is a relationship-based FX trading platform where Liquidity Consumers (LCs) choose from a full range of bank and non-bank Liquidity Providers (LPs) to create tailored liquidity pools of Executable Streaming Prices (ESP), or Request for Stream (RFS), with an intelligent credit service available via existing EBS Prime Banks.
With an unparalleled network, infrastructure and global footprint, EBS Direct provides a reliable, cost-effective solution that requires minimal technical implementation.
In September 2019, we announced the launch of our next-generation platform - which will deliver round-trip processing times in less than 50 microseconds. The new platform is now live and trading.
Create/optimize connections
Access to FX liquidity spanning G10 and niche currencies from leading bank and non-banks via a single EBS API. Regional matching centers in New York, London and Tokyo help facilitate tighter spreads and high fill ratios.
Disclosed and non-disclosed
EBS Direct offers both a disclosed and non-disclosed environment that allows customers to effectively risk transfer with no exposure of trade activity, fulfilling the growing demand for non-disclosed trading, whilst retaining the advantages of trading through relationship, permissioned liquidity.
Efficient aggregation
EBS Direct offers aggregated pricing and execution solutions by connecting you once to many price streams, facilitating trading via sweepable order book or single ticket execution. Additional liquidity can be sourced through credit with an EBS Prime Bank, giving access to a wider range of LPs and prices.
EBS Institutional
EBS Institutional (EBSI) is the first dedicated and unique total solution for FX execution, analysis and operational efficiency, built for the buy-side.
Simplifying work flows

Delivering liquidity

Providing real-time analysis
EBSI is the first platform to deliver sophisticated pre-trade Expected Cost Analysis (ECA) and Transaction Cost Analysis tools built within the platform, helping investment managers to fulfil ‘fairness’ and ‘best execution’, with built in compliance dashboards, for data-centric decision making along the trade’s lifecycle.
