In the rapidly evolving world of foreign exchange, innovation and technological prowess are not just benefits—they are becoming essential for success. But here's where it gets controversial... many might wonder: what truly differentiates the best companies in FX technology today? And how can they be recognized globally? The answer is through prestigious awards that celebrate cutting-edge advancements.
Global Finance magazine has announced its highly anticipated 2026 FX Tech Awards as a key component of the Gordon Platt Foreign Exchange Awards for this year. This distinguished program honors companies that bring fresh ideas to the table and demonstrate remarkable skill in developing or implementing innovative technological solutions aimed at enhancing the foreign exchange landscape.
These awards are named in honor of Gordon Platt, a notable figure who dedicated many years to the growth and recognition of excellence in FX technology. His legacy continues through this program, which spotlights trailblazing organizations pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
A detailed report about the 2026 FX Tech Awards will be published in both the January 2026 print and digital editions of Global Finance magazine, alongside an online feature at GFMag.com. The report will also include the magazine’s famous 26th annual 'World’s Best Foreign Exchange Banks' awards, providing a comprehensive overview of top performers.
The organizations that earn these accolades will be celebrated at a special ceremony held in London—specifically during the Gordon Platt Foreign Exchange and Best SME Bank Awards event. Exact date and location are yet to be announced.
The selection process involves regional experts from Global Finance who evaluate submission materials from banks and technology providers. Their assessments are supported by extensive research and informed insights. To determine the winners, a custom algorithm is applied, considering factors such as market share, global reach, innovative features, competitive pricing, and customer service excellence. This multi-layered approach ensures a fair and thorough evaluation of each candidate.
“Those awarded the 2026 FX Tech Awards are redefining what’s possible with foreign exchange technology,” states Joseph Giarraputo, founder and editorial director of Global Finance. “Through delivering smarter, faster, and more secure solutions, these innovators are shaping the future of global finance.
