Thomson Financial has emerged as the hot favourite to
acquire the TradeWeb electronic trading platform for
fixed-income securities. Thomson was in exclusive negotiations
with TradeWeb for three weeks until last Friday, and is
believed to have secured an extension of that exclusive
status, according to sources familiar with the
discussions. Thomson's
$500 million bid - plus an earn-out arrangement valued by
sources at $100 million - puts it ahead of main rival Reuters.
Reuters, the sources say, had halted bidding at its limit of
eight times TradeWeb's earnings: $400 million.
