Leading Liquidity and Technology Provider X Open Hub Wins Twice for its Products and Services
Market-leading Fintech company X Open Hub was recently recognized by the UF AWARDS APAC 2025 as being the Best Liquidity Provider and Best Technology provider in Asia.
The wins are exceptionally valuable, as the UF AWARDS are considered the industry’s most impartial and credible. The reason they have such a stellar reputation is largely because the nominations and voting are open to both the industry and the general public. This means winners are voted on by real clients and product users, not a board or committee. The awards are announced during the iFX EXPO Asia, which took place in Hong Kong this year, providing a very industry-specific audience for all the winners.
According to their CEO, Michal Copiuk, “These awards recognize what our clients feel in peak minutes: depth that holds, routing that adapts, and execution that stays consistent when it matters most.”
An Award-Winning Solution for Financial Institutions
X Open Hub’s comprehensive liquidity and technological solutions are made for financial institutions' use cases. Specifically designed to cover all clients’ demands, no matter the scale and scope of their operations. Their solutions are designed to accommodate rapid growth and practically unlimited scalability.
The company’s CEO, Michal Copiuk notes, “In a crowded market, sameness is a dead end. Our technology gives brokers a configurable, scalable white-label — deep order book, consistent fills at peak, and analytics that turn execution into advantage.”
Further proof that X Open Hub’s multi-asset liquidity offering is purpose-built for brokers and banks is that it offers a choice of over 5,000 instruments, including, but not limited to, popular market classes such as forex, cryptocurrencies, ETFs, bonds, shares, and commodities. It can be tailored to each entity’s requirements, while also providing access to deep liquidity. A powerful and highly integrable back-office system allows for advanced risk management as well as sophisticated and customizable reporting required for specialized regulatory frameworks such as EMIR or MiFIR.
Market-Leading Benefits
X Open Hub’s award-winning solutions ensure banks and brokers have access to a deep and transparent order book, razor-sharp spreads, millisecond-quick execution and price feeds, routing resilience, and consistent fills even during peak minutes.
Their superior pricing means that no minimum deposits or volume commissions are required on OTC instruments, competitive overnight fees, and low institutional swaps. A dedicated White Label Platform allows IBs and White Labels to quickly launch their own fully featured, bespoke brokerage.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.
