Deriv picks up Best Broker at the Ultimate Fintech APAC Awards 2025


Deriv, a global leader in online trading, was named Best Broker at the Ultimate Fintech APAC Awards 2025, during the iFX Expo Hong Kong, a nod to Deriv’s growing push in Asia Pacific as competition intensifies around localisation and 24/7 crypto access.

The regions’ trust pushes us to combine smart tech with local insight so we can deliver speed, reliability, market‑fit solutions, and support when it matters. We’ll keep raising the bar to serve our clients and partners with better trading experiences every day."
