That has delayed the publication of these awards and unfortunately meant that we were unable to present them at our usual gala dinner in New York. But we are now proud to present the winners.
GlobalCapital’s editorial team began researching the standout firms in the derivatives market in December. We then met with nominees to hear the stories of their businesses in February and March. An editorial panel then decided the winners.
As ever, we were looking for the examples of innovation, dedication to clients and industry advocacy that have driven the improvement of the global derivatives markets.
