LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)– FlexTrade Systems (@FlexTrade), a global leader in multi-asset execution and order management systems, today announced its FlexTRADER EMS has won the “Best Front-Office Execution System” category at the 16th Annual Financial News Trading & Technology Awards Europe ceremony, which was held at the Victoria & Albert Museum, London, on Tuesday, 15 May.

Winners of the Financial News Trading & Technology Awards are decided by a large pool of distinguished, independent industry practitioners who cast their votes electronically on a shortlist of five nominees chosen by the editorial board of Financial News. Judges award a score out of five to each nominee. The results are then vetted by FN editors for conflicts of interest. The highest adjusted average score out of five is the winner.
