Building of the TASS Wertpapierhandelsbank

The TASS Wertpapierhandelsbank

We have been active worldwide as an independent financial intermediary for more than 16 years in the business of fixed and floating rate bonds. We work either according to the ‘name-give-up principle’ or as a direct principal. Always operating with integrity and transparency and with price indications that are true to the market, we cultivate business relationships with over 500 customers.

Through our long experience in floating rate notes, we have excellent market and product knowledge. Our estimates enjoy the status of benchmarks for the entire market. The nearly 2,800 bonds in our database combined with our specific know-how provide a unique overview of liquid and illiquid floaters with current market prices and credit spreads. Crucial information about market segments, country categories, and individual issuers is also available. In this way we offer trading partners a true source of valuations with fair market prices, and also an attractive and independent alternative for clients who use our approximately 2,500 Bloomberg and Reuters pages respectively as a neutral source of information.

Based on these resulting synergies we have expanded our range of services and now offer our innovative service for fixed bonds. The entire spectrum of risk weighting from 0% to 100% is covered, including government guaranteed bonds, Supras and Sovereigns, Covereds and Financials all the way to Corporate Bonds.

Furthermore, we operate as a data vendor for floating rate notes. Our registered clients have access to extensive information on our new web portal www.neutralpricing.com about our bond market data and the TASS FRN Credit Indices. The Neutral Pricing System offers access to over 2,800 floater prices and over 260 FRN Credit Indices. Customers can manage their own portfolios and filter the bond universe according to various search criteria.
