which the prestigious panel of judges deemed to have 'demonstrated
innovation and excellence during 2017'.
ClearView Financial Media's CEO, and Publisher of Family
Wealth Report, Stephen Harris,
was first to extend his congratulations to all the winners. He
said: "The firms who triumphed in these awards are all worthy
winners, and I would like to extend my heartiest congratulations.
These awards were judged solely on the basis of entrants'
submissions and their response to a number of specific questions,
which had to be answered focusing on the client experience, not
quantitative performance metrics. That is a unique, and I believe,
compelling feature. These awards recognize the very best operators
in the private client industry, with 'independence', 'integrity'
and 'genuine insight' the watchwords of the judging process - such
that the awards truly reflect excellence in wealth management.
