About WealthBriefing European Awards
Showcasing ‘best of breed’ in European wealth management, the awards have been designed to recognise outstanding organisations grouped by specialism and geography which the prestigious panel of independent judges deemed to have ‘demonstrated innovation and excellence during the last year’. Each of the categories is highly contested with a small group of finalists and commended submissions chosen from a large pool of entrants before an ultimate winner is selected by the judges. It is this process that makes WealthBriefing awards so prized amongst winners, finalists and commended alike. Winning awards is particularly important in challenging times as it gives clients reassurance in the solidity and sustainability of the winner’s business and operating model.
