FIA Tech wins Best Technology Provider (Innovation) at Hedgeweek US Awards

London/ New York, 9 October 2026 – FIA Tech, a leading futures industry technology provider, has been named Best Technology Vendor (Innovation) at the Hedgeweek US Awards, recognising FIA Tech’s continued innovation in post-trade technology and the impact of the Trade Data Network (TDN) offering common clients a best-in-class operational workflow for exchange traded derivatives and US listed options.

The award recognises FIA Tech’s work to address some of the most persistent challenges facing the ETD post-trade ecosystem, where fragmented data, multiple counterparties and complex workflows create significant operational risk and inefficiency.

“We are delighted to receive the Hedgeweek US Award for Best Technology Vendor (Innovation),” said Nick Solinger, CEO, FIA Tech. “This recognition reflects the work FIA Tech has done with the industry to solving the post-trade data and workflow challenges that continue to exist across the ETD industry. Our Trade Data Network is bringing operational efficiency, risk reduction and T+0 transparency to a market that has long relied on fragmented, manual processes.”

Over the past year, FIA Tech has continued to expand TDN’s capabilities, including integration of ETD and US listed options post trade functionality directly within OMS workflows, including:

Allocations – automated allocation processing from execution through to the executing and clearing brokers.

Confirmation matching – real-time matching of trade confirmations across counterparties, with clear tracking of underlying break reasons and who has the next action to resolve them.

Fee and commission reconciliation on T+0 – same-day matching of executing, clearing and exchange fees and commissions, replacing next-day manual reconciliations, eliminating statement breaks on T+1.

Full lifecycle transparency –  real-time views of each trade’s status across the executing broker, clearinghouse and clearing broker.

The Trade Data Network was created to integrate post-trade ETD data in real time from multiple sources, including executing brokers, CCPs, clearing brokers and clients, and offer matching services to create a single trade lineage in a common, secure, standards-based ledger.

Funded by the market, TDN is already supported by over 50 banks/brokers and 40 investment managers/hedge funds with a total AUM of $34 trillion. It has comprehensive coverage of all exchanges and CCPs, with support of clearing and executing firms representing over 80% of the global futures volumes. TDN is one of the only global trade ledger initiatives to gain widespread adoption and production deployment at scale, processing millions of transactions in real time each day.
