Americas Derivatives Awards 2021 — the winners! – GlobalCapital

Since the end of last year GlobalCapital has been working to identify the stand-out market participants in the Americas derivatives markets. 

As ever, we were looking for evidence of the exceptional; looking to recognise excellence by not merely acknowledging dominant market share but also qualities such as remarkable growth, stretching to exceed client expectations, innovation and advocacy for the market.

This year, we also wanted to recognise the companies that did the most to support clients and others in the coronavirus and so we created special categories to celebrate this work — our Covid-19 Resilience Awards.

While we are not able to celebrate with the winners in person, we were fortunate enough to catch-up with some of them by video link and you can watch those interviews with GlobalCapital’s editor, Ralph Sinclair, here.

All of the winners were decided by an editorial panel after an exhaustive pitching process that took place earlier this year. 

We would like to thank everyone that took the time and trouble to participate and our congratulations to all of the winners. 


Please contact William Folkard, awards editor, or Ralph Sinclair, editor, or for any enquiries related to the awards process.
