Fleming observed improvements in the bid-ask spread, which is the difference between the highest bid price and the lowest ask price for a security. Spreads have been narrow and stable since mid-2023, after widening in the aftermath of the U.S. regional banking turmoil in March last year, he said. Regulators and the Treasury itself have in recent years launched a slate of reforms to improve trading conditions and avoid disruptions in the world's biggest bond market. Still, many market participants remain concerned that vulnerabilities that emerged in previous incidents, such as in March 2020 when liquidity rapidly deteriorated amid pandemic fears, could still reappear in case of spikes in volatility and as government debt supply continues to grow.
