MarketAxess Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: MKTX), the operator of a leading electronic trading platform for fixed-income securities, and the provider of market data and post-trade services for the global fixed-income markets, today announced the launch of the Company’s 2021 ESG Report.

Marketaxess董事长兼首席执行官Rick McVey说：“在过去二十年来是世界上最大的资本市场变革的催化剂之后，我们了解了在世界上产生有意义影响所需的持续努力。”“我们的ESG战略反映了我们对世界各地社区产生重大积极影响的雄心。这一野心是基于我们的目的：开放全球市场，为依靠它们的公司，机构和个人创造更多机会。”

Marketaxess继续通过“树木交易”计划看到创纪录的绿色债券交易量，该计划在Marketaxess平台上每执行100万美元的绿色债券交易量，种植五棵树。该计划是与种植的一棵树的合作伙伴关系，该树是一个专注于全球造林的非营利组织。2021日历年还导致了255,000棵树，除了在2022年第1季度的82,000棵树木外，种植了82,000棵树。这将自2020年1月推出以来，这将种植的树木总数增加到466,000棵。

“我在种植一棵树时的目标是使任何人种植树木并了解重新造林的影响，”一棵树的创始人兼首席环境传播者马特·希尔（Matt Hill）说。“我们通过“树木贸易计划”与Marketaxess的合作关系帮助我们为一些最关键的项目提供了资金，这些项目恢复了重要的生态系统，增强了当地社区的能力并打击气候变化的影响。”

Marketaxess还继续投资于其多样性经销商倡议，这可以帮助客户有效地访问少数民族，妇女和资深经纪交易商的服务和交易流动性，以此作为他们对ESG原则的承诺的一部分。

Marketaxess的年度ESG报告现在已进入第三年，重点介绍了该公司在关键ESG地区的进展。今年的报告详细介绍了该公司首个全面，非财务ESG重要性和优先评估的发现，并由可持续性会计标准委员会（SASB）和各种ESG评级机构确定的相关问题和披露主题所告知。As a result, this year’s report includes expanded disclosures on the Company’s progress on diversity, equity, and inclusion and human capital development initiatives, in addition to disclosures on other priority topics identified by the assessment, including customer privacy, data security, ethical conduct of business, and employee health and wellbeing.
