Frequently Asked Questions

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

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.

Q) My submission is likely to be longer than the 750-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.

Categories

Award Categories The Wealth For Good Awards program is designed to award firms and individuals for their ESG, Impact, Diversity and Inclusion initiatives, efforts and success in their operations. A downloadable list of categories is now available here.   Guidance for Entry Judges will be looking for clear evidence of how ESG, Impact, Diversity and Inclusion initiatives, programmes and offerings are differentiated from other “mainstream” products and services offered by entrants. They will take note of how these offerings, services and products conform to the established relevant definitions in each category and also how effectively they have been implemented throughout the organisation and accepted and appreciated by clients.  Please include the following components in your submission:
  • a clear statement of what each service line is attempting to achieve; 
  • metrics used to assess how well it has lived up to its own expectations, including explanations of methodologies;
  • testimonials from clients and other interested parties; and
  • real life examples and the extent to which entrants have used the service line in question to influence the overall culture of the organisation in regard to ESG, sustainability and impact.
In the thought leadership category judges will be looking for material and activity that adds to understanding and appreciation of this area amongst clients, the industry and/or the general public and could be in any format appropriate to the audience. The research category applies to published material on specific topics, companies, sectors or investments that are specific to this sector. The communication strategy category applies to internal and/or external communication and also includes a review of how the strategy has been implemented. The diversity and inclusion category will be judged on the widest criteria of these terms and will not only look at the way that statutory obligations are met but also how personal differentiators such as education, class and professional backgrounds are brought into the fold of a diverse and inclusive talent pool. In the CSR category judges will be looking for examples of the organisation initiating community activities for employees to engage with and also implementing schemes that have been brought forward by employees for consideration. The ways in which CSR activities can blend with work activities is an important part of this process. Specific examples and positive outcomes will be very much appreciated by the judges.   Steps to Enter
