The TAB Global Financial Markets Awards is a prestigious benchmarking programme that assesses institutional achievements and performance in the regulated markets and exchanges sector globally.

Global financial markets are experiencing profound shifts, driven by enduring macroeconomic challenges. High interest rates and persistent inflationary pressures have redefined capital allocation strategies, signalling a clear departure from the era of easy money. Amidst this transformation, digital assets, digital currencies, and tokenisation are emerging as pivotal forces reshaping the financial landscape.

This year, we have expanded our focus to include digital assets in the awards to reflect their growing relevance. Institutional players are increasingly recognising the potential of digital assets, not only as investment opportunities but as enablers of efficiency, transparency and innovation in traditional financial markets.

The programme is guided by an international panel of industry leaders, practitioners and academics. They oversee and support the work of the analysts to ensure the awards' integrity, independence, rigour and transparency.

For any questions concerning the programme, please contact Ms. Shenming Wang at smwang@tab.global.
