Exness Wins Best Trading Conditions at IFX EXPO 2026

Exness has received the Best Trading Conditions award at the Ultimate Fintech (UF) Awards MEA 2026, held in conjunction with iFX EXPO Dubai 2026. The recognition underscores the broker's focus on execution speed, spread stability, and transparency in pricing, areas that have become critical differentiators in the current trading environment.

The award category evaluates factors such as execution speed, slippage control, liquidity access, and pricing accuracy. According to Exness, its infrastructure is designed to minimise execution friction, with competitive spreads maintained even during volatile market conditions and deep liquidity pools available across retail and institutional segments.

Peter Plester, Head of B2B Sales at Exness, commented that the award reflects “outcomes rather than promises” and noted that sustainable trading conditions require long-term investment in infrastructure rather than short-term optimisation.

Industry Discussions and Panel Participation

Beyond the award, Exness representatives took part in industry panels at iFX EXPO Dubai 2026. Chief Marketing Officer Alfonso Cardalda joined a discussion on client retention and strategies for attracting high-value accounts, while Peter Plester participated in a session focused on operational vulnerabilities in brokerage infrastructure, covering liquidity fragmentation and technology resilience.

These conversations reflect a broader trend in the online trading industry: as retail volume concentrates among fewer, more active traders, brokers must compete on infrastructure reliability rather than marketing scale. The award signals Exness's intent to differentiate through measurable execution quality rather than promotional offers.

Significance for the MENA Region

The iFX EXPO Dubai is a key event for broker visibility and institutional partnerships in the MENA region. With regulatory frameworks maturing and liquidity demands rising, brokers are under pressure to provide transparent execution models, stable spreads during macro events, and reliable liquidity for large position sizes. Exness, founded in 2008, has evolved into one of the largest global multi-asset brokers, serving both retail clients and institutional liquidity partners.
