Overview
WealthBriefingAsia is excited to announce the launch of its 2025 Greater China Awards programme.
Now in its tenth year, and building on the long-established success of its independent judging process, nominations for The Tenth Annual WealthBriefingAsia Greater China Awards 2025 are now open.
WINNING AN AWARD
Winning a WealthBriefingAsia 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.
Should your firm be successful, there is a wide range of ways in which the achievement can be promoted, ranging from logos, editorial and website entries, social media postings, professionally produced 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 if one is held.
CATEGORIES
For the 2025 Awards, the categories are again focused around these main areas:
Private Banking including Individual Country Categories
Specialist Categories
Individual Awards

ProFundCom helps financial institutions raise and preserve AuM using digital marketing analytics. ProFundCom has been built using expertise and best practice from within the financial services industry. Our marketing analytics focus solely on the asset/investment management space and offer an integrated solution across all digital properties. We understand email/web traffic patterns of investment management clients and how you can leverage these behaviours.
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.

A) No, this program is open to all firms and individuals active in wealth management or the family office sectors.
Q) Can my firm enter more than one category?
A) Yes, we encourage firms to enter as many awards that are applicable to their business.
Q) Do I need to use the submission form provided?
A) Yes, submissions shall only be accepted when using this document.
Q) Is there any upfront cost to enter?
A) No, there is no upfront cost to enter, but you will be offered the chance to purchase a winner’s marketing package should you be successful. The judging process is completely independent of the commercial arrangements between the participants and the organisers. However it is expected that when the results are made public, winners will engage with the organisers to promote their win and also attend the awards ceremony to accept their trophy.
Q) Is the process open to firms that are not currently active within the Asia region?
A) The judges will only consider submissions from firms that are demonstrably active in the region. Please see here an overview of our global awards programmes.
Q) How do you ensure that the judging process is independent and impartial?
A) The Judges are independent of the award organisers ensuring they are divided into separate panels to avoid conflicts of interest.
Q) Can you assure me that any details that I submit will be treated with confidentiality?
A) We only share submissions with the panel responsible for judging those particular categories. Furthermore, our experienced team ensures that there is no conflict of interest before they share an entrant’s submission with anyone. All our judges have signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement.
Q) My submission is likely to be longer than the 1,000-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. Judges reserve the right to refuse to review submissions that do not comply. We also encourage against attachments to the submissions.
Q) Do I need to submit a separate submission for each category?
A) You will need to do a new form for each submission and you should also ensure that this specifically relates to the category for which you are entering. If you are using the same answers for multiple submissions this could result in your entry being marked down by the judging panel.
Q) Where is the winner’s announcement shared?
A) The winners are announced publicly the day after the official awards celebration and this is via our editorial and social media platforms.
Q) Can I speak to anyone on the team about my entry?
A) Yes, our experienced team is always available to assist you with preparation of your submission/s and any aspects of the process from start to finish. For any questions please contact jenna.maybery@clearviewpublishing.com
