Wematch.live FS has announced that its UK-regulated Multilateral Trading Facility (MTF) is now live, enabling matching activity across total return swaps, securities lending, and repo on a single, regulated venue.
Following approval from the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the launch of the MTF marks a significant milestone for Wematch.live, the firm says.
It aims to provide market participants with a dedicated venue for executing securities finance transactions within a transparent and regulated framework.
The platform enables clients to match and execute transactions across multiple products within one environment, supporting more efficient workflows, improved visibility, and greater regulatory certainty.
The MTF is designed to meet growing demand for more structured and compliant trading environments in securities finance, bolstering market resilience as institutions increasingly prioritise governance, transparency, and operational efficiency.
David Raccat, CEO of Wematch UK MTF, says: “Bringing these products onto a single, regulated venue is a major step forward for the market.
“It gives our clients greater confidence in how they trade, while also building the operational resilience required to navigate an increasingly complex global regulatory landscape.”
