Beyond fast growth: Versus Trade wins Best ECN/STP Broker at UF AWARDS APAC 2026
Following its global growth award earlier this year, the CFD broker receives further industry recognition at iFX EXPO Asia in Hong Kong.
Less than four months after being named Fastest Growing Broker at the UF AWARDS Global 2026, Versus Trade has added another title to its record.
The international CFD broker received the Best ECN/STP Broker APAC 2026 award on October 8, during the UF AWARDS ceremony held alongside iFX EXPO Asia at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
The result represents the company's third recognition in the UF AWARDS series since 2025, highlighting different aspects of its development over a relatively short period.
A Shift From Growth to Trading Infrastructure
For a brokerage established in 2024, rapid expansion has been a central part of Versus Trade's early business story.
By June 2026, the company had reported more than $300 billion in cumulative trading volume and a presence across over 45 countries. Its growth was recognised at the UF AWARDS Global ceremony in Cyprus, where it received the Fastest Growing Broker title.
The latest award introduces a different dimension to that story.
Rather than focusing on market expansion, the Best ECN/STP Broker category draws attention to brokerage execution arrangements — a fundamental component of trading services that operates largely behind the scenes.
ECN/STP models are associated with electronic order processing, trade routing and liquidity connectivity. These areas remain relevant as brokers develop their infrastructure to accommodate different trading strategies and market conditions.
While the award is based on industry voting rather than an independent technical audit, it adds another point of recognition to Versus Trade's growing international profile.
Three Titles Across Two Years
The latest result follows the company's previous recognition as Best Forex Spreads APAC 2025 and Fastest Growing Broker Global 2026.
Together, these distinctions span trading costs, commercial expansion and execution-related services.
The UF AWARDS series brings together brokers, technology providers and other participants in the online trading ecosystem, with winners determined through an open voting process.
For Versus Trade, the Hong Kong ceremony also provided an opportunity to engage with industry participants from across the Asia-Pacific region during iFX EXPO Asia 2026.
Expanding Beyond Conventional CFD Instruments
Alongside its international development, Versus Trade offers trading through MetaTrader 5, with access to more than 200 CFD instruments across forex, equities, indices, metals, energies and cryptocurrencies.
Its product range also includes proprietary Versus Pairs, which allow traders to take positions based on the relative performance of two underlying assets.
As the company enters its next stage of development, the latest award adds to a series of industry milestones achieved since its 2024 launch.
