Investment Life & Pensions Moneyfacts announces 2011 award winners
The winners of the 2011 Investment Life & Pensions Moneyfacts Awards were announced today at the Marriott Hotel, Grosvenor Square, London.
Over 400 industry professionals from the leading financial institutions and industry bodies gathered at a special awards luncheon hosted by TV presenter Natasha Kaplinsky. Thirty-five awards were presented to recognise those companies that have consistently offered the most competitive products, the best levels of service and shown the greatest innovation during the last 12 months.
The awards were based on a combination of the analytical expertise of the Investment Life & Pensions Moneyfacts research team and the opinions of its IFA readership.
Richard Eagling, Editor of Investment Life & Pensions Moneyfacts, said: “With finance stories continuing to dominate newspaper front pages, advisers are understandably more eager than ever to ensure that the products and providers that they recommend offer the best value for money and a first class client experience. One of the main reasons why the Investment Life & Pensions Moneyfacts Awards have become such a highly sought after accolade of excellence is the rigorous process by which the winners are decided. All the winners at this year’s awards can truly be regarded as leaders in their field.”
