- **Electronification advanced most rapidly in dealer-to-customer trading**, while the electronic share of interdealer trading decreased.
⏎
Activity has also gravitated more to dealers’ proprietary liquidity pools and away from primary inter-dealer venues
**Yet there are signs that fragmentation may be reaching its peak**
⏎
- A rise in intermediation within dealers’ proprietary liquidity pools contributed to a decline in the share of “visible” FX trading in spot markets.
⏎
This decline in electronic inter-dealer trading was driven principally by internalisation, whereby dealers temporarily warehouse risk arising from client transactions until it is offset against opposing client flow
⏎
- **Customers and dealers responded to market fragmentation by executing trades across a large number of electronic venues.** 
⏎
during periods of stress, FX dealers might ration liquidity and **favour clients with whom they have a strong relationship**, such as those
using their single-bank platform⏎
