The TRADE is delighted to announce the buy-side shortlists for its inaugural Leaders in Trading New York Awards for North America.
This year, The TRADE is proud to be celebrating its twentieth anniversary and to mark the momentous occasion we are excited to be launching the first North American iteration of our famous Leaders in Trading awards.
The shortlists for the Leaders in Trading New York Buy-Side Awards have been produced following a slew of nominations from key industry players across North America, recognising whom amongst their peers stand out as the most deserving of these recognitions.
Congratulations to all those nominated across the five categories! The winners will be announced at the Leaders in Trading New York glittering awards night to be held at Chelsea Piers in New York City on 19 November.
“The Buy-Side Awards are the highlight of Leaders in Trading,” said The TRADE’s editor Annabel Smith. “We couldn’t be more excited to be bringing the magic of Leaders in Trading over to the US for the first time in The TRADE’s 20-year history.”
The categories for the Buy-Side Awards include the coveted Trader of the Year – Long Only, Trader of the Year – Hedge Fund, the Trading Desk of the Year Awards, and Buy-Side Market Structure Expert of the Year.
