Winners of the 2019 FX Week Asia Awards
The awards acknowledge the growing importance played by market participants in Asia-Pacific in FX
FX Week is delighted to announce the winners of the second edition of the FX Week Asia Awards, which were presented on August 29 at a reception at the Westin Hotel in Singapore, following the conclusion of the 15th annual FX Week Asia conference.
The awards recognise the growing importance of Asia-Pacific in the foreign exchange market and the expanding role played by market participants in the region.
They complement the annual e-FX Awards and Best Banks Awards, which take place in New York and London, respectively.
As with the Best Banks Awards, the FX Week Asia awards acknowledge the significance of client feedback rather than market share.
As such, clients were asked to vote for their favourite and best providers across 25 categories, spanning liquidity provision, domestic FX services and technology offerings, among others.
However, in contrast to the Best Banks Awards, only votes originating from clients based in Asia-Pacific were accepted.
The categories are divided into two sections. The first set recognises an FX house of the year for major Asia-Pacific economies, while the second focuses on specific business areas and technology-driven services.
FX Week would like to congratulate each and every winner on their achievements.
