The 2015 Markets Choice Awards are coming soon!

We are working diligently to determine which companies and individuals deserve recognition. We’ve wrapped up the self-nomination stage, and we’re now conducting one-on-one interviews with senior executives across the buy side and sell side, exchanges and technology providers to glean deeper insights. We will then craft shortlists of nominees and open up MarketsMedia.com to voting in early January.

For our working list of categories, see below.

The awards event will be held in New York on Thursday, February 19.
