Nomination process opens for 2021 PA Wealth Partnership Awards

Celebrating excellence in UK wealth and asset management – and how they work together for investors

|

After the success of our inaugural event last year, Portfolio Adviser is delighted to announce the return of the Wealth Partnership Awards, which are designed to recognise and reward excellence across key elements of the UK’s wealth and asset management businesses – including, crucially, where the two sectors work together in partnership to generate wealth for end-investors.

The awards are open to individuals, teams and companies in UK wealth and asset management and, if you work in either sector, you are invited to nominate yourself or put forward the name of a colleague or anyone else you believe deserves recognition. Category shortlists will be published in the autumn and winners announced on 30 November 2021. The deadline for nominations, meanwhile, is 8 October 2021.

Nominate yourself or other deserving candidates now

Portfolio Adviser group editor Julian Marr said: “As a leading provider of news, insight and analysis for wealth managers and other UK investment professionals, Portfolio Adviser has a responsibility to highlight instances of both good and bad practice in wealth and asset management – and if we come down hard on the bad, it is only fair and reasonable that we should celebrate the good.

“That is why we are encouraging our readers to put forward their nominations of those individuals, teams, companies and initiatives they believe deserve recognition for excellence across the UK’s wealth and asset management sectors in areas such as investment, ESG, marketing, inclusion, sales, service, technology and wellbeing.”

Awards methodology

Where appropriate, nominees can be involved in roles relating to UK-based wealth management and asset management – including but not limited to investment, management, strategy, product development, marketing, communications, sales, client service, human resources or front, middle or back-office operations.

After the deadline for nominations has passed, all nominees will be contacted and sent a short questionnaire they will be required to complete in order to progress to the next round of judging. Category shortlists will be created on the strength of completed questionnaires and from these an expert panel of judges will decide the winners. These awards focus heavily on the previous calendar year and so our judges are asked to attribute significant weight to relevant achievements accomplished since 1 January 2020

All the category shortlists will be announced in the autumn, with the winners revealed at a special dinner in central London on 30 November 2021.
