Nominations are now being accepted for the 2010 PBI
Global Wealth Awards. Considered to be the most prestigious
accolades in the wealth industry for excellence and best practice,
winners are due to be announced this October.

The awards are particularly relevant this year
as the wealth industry adapts to a new investment climate
fundamentally altered by the impact of the global financial
crisis.

Larger banks have been battling to stem the
outflow of client managed assets, banking mergers and acquisitions
have continued meaning banks are reviewing what they offer clients
and how they manage relationships.

The flight to quality by concerned clients
means that medium-sized and even smaller institutions and boutiques
continue to make gains at the cost of their larger rivals.

These tributes to the best-of-breed players
aim, above all, to be fair and objective benchmarks for the global
private banking and wealth management business as a whole.

The awards have been created to identify
industry leaders and those individuals and organisations that are
setting new standards.

Crucially, they will identify the best practice
institutions – those that have done the most in the past year to
advance and strengthen wealth management as an industry.

This year we have launched a new award,
Outstanding Philanthropy Offering, designed to recognise the
increasing importance of philanthropic services to private wealth
clients.
