Permutable wins AI Innovation of the Year: Europe at the Euromoney Markets Awards 2026

Permutable wins AI Innovation of the Year: Europe at the Euromoney Markets Awards 2026, following its Hedgeweek innovation award. This announcement outlines its predictive market intelligence across macroeconomics, commodities and geopolitics, with point-in-time history and source-level traceability. It is aimed at hedge funds, asset managers, investment banks and commodity trading teams evaluating explainable signals for research, trading and risk.

We’re proud to have been named AI Innovation of the Year: Europe at the Euromoney Markets Awards 2026.

The recognition follows our win as Technology Provider of the Year: Innovation at the Hedgeweek European Awards 2026. Together, these awards mark an important year for our team and our work helping institutional investors anticipate how economic, geopolitical and commodity developments could shape market prices.

For the institutions evaluating our intelligence, the questions remain practical: what does a signal tell us, what evidence sits behind it, and does it improve our existing research process? These are the questions we build around.

Understanding what markets may price next

Market pressure often develops across sources, languages and regions before it becomes a widely recognised investment theme. A change in local policy can alter currency expectations. Disruption to physical supply can affect commodity prices and inflation. Several individually modest developments can, together, change the outlook.

Our predictive market intelligence connects that information and measures how it is changing. We turn global information flows into structured, explainable signals across macroeconomics, commodities and geopolitical risk, giving investment teams a consistent way to investigate emerging developments.

Wilson Chan, our Founder and CEO, said:

“Markets price expectations, and those expectations start forming long before they appear in an economic release. The clues are often scattered across local reporting, policy decisions and physical supply chains. We built Permutable to connect that evidence and measure how the picture is changing, generating actionable intelligence for investment decisions.  Ultimately, it’s about generating a clear view of what was known at the time and why a signal moved. That takes years of research and engineering and it’s very rewarding to see that work recognised by Euromoney.”

Giving institutions the evidence to evaluate

An award is a welcome recognition but more importantly for our clients and partners institutional confidence also depends on being able to examine the data and assess its relevance to a specific market or strategy.

We support that evaluation through:

• Point-in-time history: more than 11 years of historical data to support testing with information available at each observation.
• Source-level traceability: access to the underlying reporting and developments contributing to a signal.
• Market context: views that distinguish directional pressure from general sentiment, and domestic narratives from international coverage.
• Published research: defined macroeconomic and commodity applications with results and methodology available for review.
• Practical integration: historical and live intelligence delivered through APIs, Excel and institutional data feeds.

Our research explores applications including inflation monitoring between official releases, monetary-policy sentiment in rates research, and commodity signals within systematic strategies. Each gives institutions a starting point for assessing where our intelligence could complement their own data, models and judgement.

Michael Brisley, our Chief Commercial Officer, said:

“The most useful conversations start with a specific investment question. Can we get a better view of inflation between releases? Is pressure building in a commodity market? Does this information add something to the models already in place?

“We work with teams to define that question and put the relevant data to the test. The awards are encouraging recognition for the business. Building lasting client relationships comes from helping institutions establish where the intelligence is useful in their own process.”

Building on a year of recognition

Our Euromoney and Hedgeweek awards recognise innovation in a year when we have continued to develop our intelligence and publish research into its market applications.

We’re grateful to our researchers, engineers and commercial team, and to the clients and research partners whose scrutiny helps us improve. Their questions shape both what we build and how we demonstrate its value.

Our ambition remains to give institutional investors an earlier, clearer and more testable view of what markets may price next.
