CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#derivatives–Matrix Executions, an agency-only broker dealer headquartered in Chicago, celebrates winning its second award in the financial services space in six months after being named a “Top 10 Trading Solutions Provider” by Financial Services Magazine on July 17, 2023.

I think that gives us unique insights into the problems that our clients currently face.”
This accolade follows Matrix Executions’ earlier win of the award for “Best Options Trading Technology Provider of 2023” in the 11th annual U.S. Markets Choice Awards held in New York City on May 3rd, 2023.
