Over the last few months, GlobalCapital’s awards research team has been working to identify the standout players from across the derivatives market. Following a submission process, as well as our own independent research and consultation with the market, we are delighted to present the shortlist for our 2023 Global Derivatives Awards.
The nominees are now invited to pitch to win their categories. The pitching process will be run by Sophie Astles, awards editor, in conjunction with John Anderson. John’s career spans both journalism and corporate communications. Starting out as an investigative journalist, he has more recently written for GlobalCapital, as well as Euromoney and Risk magazines.
Pitch meetings will last around 30 minutes, and organisations with multiple nominations are welcome to cover several categories in a single session. The awards cover the period from January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2023.
When selecting this year’s winners, judges will be looking for examples of innovation, growth and work to advance the derivatives industry, as well as extraordinary effort on behalf of clients.
Differentiation is key and nominees should demonstrate how they have stood out from their competitors in their performance, what they offer to clients or in their strategy.
Judges will also be interested in how organisations are future-proofing their businesses in relation to areas such as technology, regulation, market dynamics and ESG.
In addition to the categories shortlisted below, we will be awarding Derivatives House of the Year for the Americas, Europe & Asia, and Global, as well as an Americas Law Firm of the Year, Global Law Firm of the Year, and Global Interdealer Broker of the Year. However, these are no longer pitched categories and will instead be based on an institution’s performance across other categories.
The pitching process is now open and the key dates are as follows:
Pitches begin: May 1
Deadline for pitching: June 23
Winners revealed: September
To book your pitch, or for any questions about the awards, please contact Sophie Astles.
