Following the success of The TRADE’s inaugural Diversity & Inclusion Survey, we’re back for a second year, offering market experts the chance to influence the industry on another level.
Your opinions and insights are immensely valuable to us here at The TRADE and will help guide our content moving forward, so we would really appreciate your participation.
The survey should take no more than two minutes of your time, and all answers are anonymous, to participate please click here.
The findings not only allow both market participants and onlookers to gauge and better-understand progress being made across the industry, but also directly influences industry focus points.
The TRADE’s upcoming International Women’s Day webinar is set to bring together some of the industry’s key thought leaders to unpack what the survey findings truly reveal, and what the market should be fixing on as they seek to extract real value.

Earlier this year The TRADE was the official partner of the TradeTech FX US conference, which saw experts across the buy- and sell-side delve into the wealth that potential D&I holds. In a similar vein, The TRADE sat down with MEAG TradeTech Europe last year to discuss the importance of diversity and inclusion in the industry and what still needs to be done.
The TRADE’s coverage highlighted insights from asset managers into how small steps in building diverse teams can lead to big benefits, a trend which is more than likely be further emphasised by the latest D&I survey findings.
The TRADE’s first Diversity & Inclusion Survey polled a wide selection of buy-side firms (48%), sell-side firms (39%) and trading venues (12%), and found that while diversity is highly valued across the industry and recognised as a crucial element, there are still a number of gaps.
In a bid to support future development, through this survey, The TRADE wants to understand: How your desk is made up, how could it be improved? What works and what doesn’t? How much progress have we made, and how far is there still to go?
As research continues to increasingly prove the value of D&I processes, key players across the industry are demonstrably taking heed, ensuring that they don’t miss the boat. This is one of the most important issues of our time, and we hope to play a role, alongside you, in supporting progress.
