(NYSE:BR), today announced that it has been awarded four new patents on its fixed income trading innovations of bond similarity technology, dealer selection score technology, liquidity aggregation technology, and RFQ+ trading protocol. Together, these technologies serve to inform pre-trade decision-making and bring new efficiency to trade execution.
