CEO Nominations: Recognising the Leaders Behind the Companies
The Finance Magnates Awards 2026 are not only recognising companies.
This year, the Awards also allow industry leaders to be nominated in dedicated CEO categories.
The CEO nominations are divided into two groups:
Brokerage & Prop Firm CEOs
For CEOs leading companies that serve traders directly, including brokerage and prop trading businesses.
Fintech CEOs
For CEOs leading fintech, technology, payments and other companies supporting the financial industry.
This gives companies another opportunity to put their leadership in front of the wider industry.
A company may therefore be part of the Awards programme while its CEO is also considered for individual recognition.
Whether your business operates in B2C or B2B, the CEO categories give the people leading these companies their own place in the Finance Magnates Awards 2026.
Company recognition and leadership recognition can now go hand in hand.
