Notes for Editors

The purpose of the City of London Wealth Management Awards is to recognise and promote quality of service from Wealth Management companies and individuals.

Winners are determined by an online vote which makes the Awards independent, unique and highly valued. Voting took place over a two week period in February 2015 and the poll was reviewed by an independent panel of judges from the Law firms Edwin Coe, Jones Day and RBS.

The event was sponsored by FactSet, Clearstream Banking, Equiniti, Allfunds Bank, JHC, Willis Limited FINEX Global-Financial Institutions, FNZ, Platform Securities and Spectator Money who was the Media Partner.
