Every submission is carefully reviewed to ensure the most deserving companies and individuals are selected as winners in each category. Standout submissions that are close runners-up to the winning entry are often 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 Marketing Your Success

Winning a WealthBriefing Award sets organizations 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 are also tangible demonstrations of the sustainability and robustness of your organization. Winners and commended companies will be given advance notification of their success, allowing time to prepare their marketing messaging around the promotion of their achievement before the public announcement in 2023. WealthBriefing – as the leading voice of the family office and wealth management community – will work with the winners to optimize their success by offering a range of marketing collateral.

Winners and commended entries will be celebrated in July 2023

These awards are now open for entry and firms are invited to submit their nominations by 3 March 2023.
