Leaders in Trading 2023: Voting now open for this year’s Buy-Side Awards

The wait is finally over. The TRADE is delighted to reveal the shortlisted nominees for this year’s coveted Buy-Side Awards, in partnership with SIX Swiss Exchange.

This year’s categories have been updated slightly, and for the first time the Buy-Side Awards will celebrate a Hedge Fund Trading Desk of the Year alongside the Long Only category. The TRADE’s other renowned awards categories returning to the stage include Trader of the Year, Multi-Asset Trading Desk of the Year, Fixed Income Trading Desk of the Year, and Buy-side Market Structure Expert of the Year.

Shortlists were developed following extensive evaluation and industry consultation, in partnership with SIX Swiss Exchange.

Voting is now open and industry participants are invited to nominate their winners across the six categories, with the vote closing on Monday 23 October.

The winners across each of the six categories, based on voting submissions, will be announced at The TRADE’s highly anticipated Leaders in Trading 2023 gala awards night, held at The Savoy Hotel in London on 8 November.
