Judging Process

As always, independence, integrity and genuine insight are the watchwords of the judging process.

In 2021 there are more than thirty judges coming from family offices, private banks, trusted advisers, consultants and other service providers each of whom has in-depth knowledge and a broad experience.

The deadline to receive your submissions is  23 October 2020, when the judging process begins. 

Every submission is carefully reviewed to ensure the best companies and individuals are selected as winners in each category, whilst commercially sensitive information is kept confidential. Conflicts of interest are avoided at all times.

Our judges give their top tips for a standout submission. Read our article here and watch the video below (click on the image) to hear their responses.
