Judging
Independence, integrity and genuine insight are the watchwords of the judging process, which is conducted by expert panels drawn from banks, family offices and trusted advisors/consultants to the sector.
Every submission is carefully reviewed to ensure the most deserving companies and individuals are selected as winners in each category. Standout submissions that have a particular reason to be praised may be commended by the judges.
Commercially sensitive information is kept confidential, and conflicts of interest are avoided at all times. All judges have signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement.
Awards Notification Process and Leveraging Your Success
Winning a WealthBriefingAsia award sets organisations and individuals apart from their peers and is a tangible demonstration that they have something special to offer. It rewards achievement and showcases top-class performance, innovation and distinction. They also showcase the sustainability and robustness of your organisation.
Winners and commended companies will be given advance notification of their success, allowing time to prepare their marketing messages around the promotion of their achievement before the public announcement. WealthBriefingAsia – as the leading voice of the family office and wealth management community – will work with the winners to optimise their success by offering a range of marketing collateral.
Annual Acclaim Magazine
One of the award outputs is the Annual Acclaim magazine which is widely distributed to our community. All winners and sponsors are given the opportunity to have an extended entry within this publication and are invited to send the publication to their prospects and clients.

Whilst the judging process is completely independent of the commercial arrangements between the participants and the organisers it is expected that winners have a financial obligation to work with the organisers to promote their award(s).

Q) My submission is likely to be longer than the 1,000-word max limit. Would this disadvantage me?

Q) Do I need to submit a separate submission for each category?

smartKYC’s AI software is used by banks to automate customer due diligence whether for remediation, onboarding, refresh or continuous monitoring; our technology drives faster, better, and more cost- effective KYC at every stage of the relationship – liberating human effort to focus on decision-making rather than laborious screening and research. smartKYC integrates all relevant KYC sources - external watchlists, media archives, open web search, private company data, internal blacklists and, like a human, it reads everything and extracts useful intelligence in the form of facts. smartKYC presents facts about risks like adverse media, but also provides insights into information like source of wealth, network risk and even ESG misdemeanours. Sophisticated hit scoring maximises relevance and minimises false positives. All of this is done at speed and at scale and, as such, straight through processing opportunities become obvious. In refresh or continuous monitoring mode, smartKYC watches only for net new risks as they emerge and never repeats what is already known.
