One of the Finance Magnates Awards' defining features is its transparent voting process. FMAA uses a dual voting system to ensure that both the community and industry experts play a key role in deciding the winners.

Community Voting: Half of the voting power comes from the broader industry community. Through Finance Magnates’ channels, industry professionals, as well as members of the global trading community, can cast their votes.

This inclusion gives a voice to those directly impacted by the services and products, offering a unique, bottom-up perspective in the awards process.

Expert Panel: The remaining 50% of the vote is handled by a panel of top industry experts. These judges bring years of experience and credibility to the table, ensuring that the final decisions are democratic and well-informed.
