Vote now in the 2013 Risk institutional investor rankings

Take part in Risk's annual ranking of dealers serving institutional investors - and share your views on the changing OTC market

Thank you for participating in the Risk institutional investor rankings 2013.

The ranking is divided into six derivatives product categories: interest rate, currency, credit, equity, exotic equity, and ETFs. Please complete the poll by choosing your top three bank counterparties in order of preference in each of the categories.

Only vote in categories you have traded in the last year. If you didn't trade in a particular product or currency category over the year, please leave the data field empty.

The rankings also include a set of survey questions, in which respondents are asked for their views on some of the changes and challenges now affecting the OTC market – please share your opinions.

The rankings – including the survey questions – should take no more than 5–10 minutes to complete. All responses will remain strictly confidential and personal information will not be published or released to any third party.

The results will be available to subscribers in the June 2013 issue of Risk and online at www.risk.net/risk-magazine.

Please note that this survey is only open to asset managers, pension funds, insurance companies, hedge funds and bank end-users (NOT bank market-making desks). Votes cast by corporates will be discarded. Please do not vote for your own company or a subsidiary of your company.

The closing date for the poll is April 22, 2013.

If you have any questions, please contact me at [phone] or [e-mail]

Thanks in advance for your time.
