Independent Governance & Selection Process
Prestige stems from the integrity of the process. Winners are selected by point-indexed scoring method based on criteria such as finance-debt restructure; complexity; organization – operations, management; sector/markets; jurisdiction; stakeholder/community impact; brand; leadership, etc. Firms are chosen from short-list, irrelevant of league table rankings. Standards include the firm’s advisory record, expertise, team and leadership, among pertinent category criteria.
Significantly, the process excludes any involvement by nominees or industry participants to insure a 100% conflict-free outcome. We do not accept awards gala sponsorship from financial or legal advisors to avoid any “pay for play” conflicts.
