The Tenth Annual WealthBriefing European Awards 2022

Wednesday - 30th March 2022

Sheraton Grand Park Lane
Piccadilly, London W1J 7BX United Kingdom

About Judges & Sponsors Finalists & Winners Categories & Register

Overview

WealthBriefing is excited to announce the launch of its 2022 European Awards programme.

Now celebrating its tenth anniversary, and building on the long-standing success of its independent judging process, nominations for The Tenth Annual WealthBriefing Awards 2022 are now open.

Having reported on the wealth management industry for over 16 years and being responsible for many research reports specifically covering European wealth management market, WealthBriefing is well placed to oversee a process that fairly rewards achievement, top class performance and innovation.

WINNING AN AWARD

Winning a WealthBriefing Award sets organisations and individuals apart from their peers. The award is a tangible demonstration that the winners have something special to offer, rewarding achievement and showcasing top class performance and innovation.

If your firm is successful there is a wide range of ways in which this achievement can be promoted, ranging from logos, editorial and website entries, social media postings, professional videos and entry into the Annual Winners Acclaim magazine.

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 and this obligation is separate to attendance at an awards ceremony.

 

CATEGORIES

For those new to the awards, the categories are focused around three main areas:

  • Experts (individuals and teams)
  • Products
  • Services (for wealth managers and clients/institutions of all sizes and types)

 

JUDGING PROCESS

Within our global awards programmes, independence, integrity and genuine insight are the watchwords. The judging process is always conducted by expert panels drawn from the wealth management industry.

Each judge signs an NDA to ensure that all the information that they see in submissions remains strictly confidential.

GALA DINNER

We will be hosting a gala dinner at the Sheraton Grand Park Lane, London, on Wednesday 30th March 2022 to give winners a chance to celebrate their success with their peer group.

SPONSORSHIP

Frequently Asked Questions

Q) Do I/my firm need to be a subscriber to WealthBriefing?

A) No, this program is open to all relevant firms.

Q) Is there any upfront cost to enter?

A) No, there is no upfront cost to enter, but you will be offered to acquire a winner’s package should you be successful.

Q) Is the process open to firms that are not active within Europe?

A) The judges will only consider submissions from firms that are active in the region.

Q) How do you ensure that the judging process is independent and impartial?

A) To avoid any conflict of interest we have three judging panels. One panel of bankers who judges the trusted advisor categories. Another panel of trusted advisors who are responsible for judging the banking categories and finally a panel of experts to judge the technology categories.

Q) Can you assure me that any details that I submit will be treated with confidentiality?

A) We collect your details and only share submissions with the judges’ team responsible for judging those particular categories. We ensure that there is no conflict of interest with the judges’ team before sharing entrants’ details. All our judges have signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).

Q) My submission is likely to be longer than the 1000-word max limit. Would this disadvantage me?

A) We have set the limit out of respect to the judges and we are keen to maintain this to ensure that there is a level playing field between competing submissions.
