Nominees are now invited to pitch for each award over the coming weeks. A GlobalCapital editorial panel will decide the winners.
These awards honour the companies, platforms, services and products that have made an impact on the global derivatives market during the last 12 months.
Considerations for each category will include unique products and services, technological innovation, commitments to new markets, measures to improve efficiency and liquidity, initiatives to help improve market stability and oversight, as well as client guidance and advocacy.
