The day is finally here, the Leaders in Trading Awards 2026. Tonight, The TRADE will welcome the shortlisted nominees and guests at The Savoy Hotel in London.
As you read this, the tables are being dressed and the crystals polished, and the TRADE team are running through their speeches one last time before we open the doors for another memorable night of celebration!
This evening will honour the best of the industry across the buy-side, sell-side, data providers, technology firms and trading venues.
Awards include our Algorithmic Trading and Execution Management Systems Awards, the Editors’ Choice Awards, the Buy-Side Awards, Innovation Awards, Lifetime Achievement, The TRADE Legacy Award, and the coveted Industry Person of the Year – which will be decided by a live vote on the night.
