EBC Financial Group says it was named Best CFD Provider, Global at the Global Forex Awards 2026, Retail, an awards programme that organisers said drew more than 25,000 public votes.
The award was announced on 15 September 2026. Holiston Media, which organises the programme, said the 2026 edition recorded the highest participation in the awards’ history, with winners recognised across global and regional categories spanning Asia, Africa, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East and North Africa.
EBC said the recognition reflects its focus on regulatory discipline, infrastructure and execution for clients trading contracts for difference. The company also said it serves clients in more than 100 countries and has more than 5 million registered users, with average monthly trading volume of more than USD390 billion.
Award voting and company claims
According to EBC, its entities are regulated in jurisdictions including Australia, the UK, the Cayman Islands, Mauritius and South Africa. Its Australian entities, EBC Financial Group (Australia) Pty Ltd and EBC Asset Management Pty Ltd, are regulated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.
Andria Phiniefs, Marketing Director, EBC Financial Group, said: “Being recognised as Best CFD Provider – Global is meaningful because the quality of CFD trading is measured by what clients experience when they enter the market: the reliability of their access, the consistency of execution and the conditions available to them when markets move quickly.”
Archie Humphries, Director of Holiston Media, said the 2026 winners would benefit from increased brand awareness, enhanced credibility and elevated trust from traders and industry peers. Holiston Media said nearly 295,000 verified votes have been recorded across its awards programmes to date.
