What is a distinguishing feature of a fixed-income electronic trading system?

  1. Handles derivative products

  2. Specializes in commodities trading

  3. Primarily for trading equities

  4. Mainly for bond transactions

The correct answer is: Mainly for bond transactions

A distinguishing feature of a fixed-income electronic trading system is its focus on bond transactions. While options A and B are not entirely incorrect (derivative products and commodities can also be traded on electronic platforms), they are not unique to fixed-income trading systems and do not set them apart. Option C, trading equities, is incorrect as equities are typically traded on separate electronic systems designed specifically for that type of asset. Therefore, D (mainly for bond transactions) is the most accurate option.
