Leading online trading platform, Deriv, has secured a double win at the Finance Magnates Awards 2025, taking home the Most Trusted Broker (MENA) and Best Trading Conditions Broker (Global) titles. The recognition comes as the company marks 26 years in the industry and continues to scale its regulated presence and product depth.

In MENA, the Most Trusted Broker award reflects Deriv’s regulated footprint and localisation strategy. Deriv Capital Contracts & Currencies L.L.C., licensed by the UAE's Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA), offers swap-free accounts aligned with Islamic finance principles. A mobile-first experience, local payment options, small minimum investment sizes, and both Arabic and English support have widened access to global markets across the region.

Deriv CEO Rakshit Choudhary comments, “Being recognised for both trust and trading conditions confirms our model is working. It gives us the mandate to deepen transparency, education, and risk management. We will keep delivering on our promise to broaden access, strengthen protection, and elevate performance for our clients and partners.”

The Best Trading Conditions Broker (Global) award highlights Deriv’s focus on execution quality, transparent pricing and platform choice across multiple platforms such as Deriv MT5, and Deriv Nakala, the company’s copy trading platform. Clients can trade more than 300 assets, ranging from forex and stocks to indices, commodities, cryptocurrencies, and ETFs that are available around the clock, with consistently low spreads, fast execution, and no hidden costs.

This year, Deriv broadened its product set with 400 global stocks and introduced 24/5 trading on 20 major US shares, all seamlessly available on the trusted Deriv MT5 platform without additional charges or changes for clients.

“This award recognises our focus on operational excellence and client-first innovation. We believe trading conditions should empower every trader, so we design around their unique needs and deliver an environment to thrive with exciting products, transparent pricing, and real choice,” said Aggelos Armenatzoglou, Head of Dealing at Deriv.

Deriv has also adopted an AI-first approach across its operations, using artificial intelligence for compliance automation, personalised trading analytics, and client support, where chatbots now resolve up to 85% of client queries. This not only increases speed and efficiency but also provides clients with deeper insight, smarter risk management, and a seamless trading experience. Importantly, while AI powers these advancements, human expertise remains in the driver’s seat. Our expert support team is on hand to provide guidance, ensuring every trader feels heard and valued.

Building on these awards, Deriv plans to raise the bar for trust, innovation, and trading excellence through continued investment in platform reliability, product breadth, and client protection both in the MENA region and globally. These achievements reaffirm Deriv’s enduring mission to empower traders everywhere, through technology and regulatory standards that set the benchmark for the industry.
