GlobalCapital is please to open nominations for the 2024 edition of its Covered Bond Awards.
The Awards celebrate the most notable market achievements in the period between August 2023 and July 2024.
KEY DATES
Nominations open: May 15
Nominations close: May 29
Shortlist published/voting opens: June 5
Voting closes: July 5
Winners announced: September 12
As in previous years, the awards will be decided by a two-step process.
The first stage is the call for nominations. Market participants are invited to tell us about the deals, issuers and banks that deserve recognition for the period August 2023 to July 2024.
Anyone with a strong interest in and good understanding of the covered bond market can make up to three nominations for each award category listed below.
Based on this feedback we will draw up a shortlist of up to five nominees in each category. These will be opened to a market vote throughout June to choose the winners.
The winners will be announced on the evening of the ECBC Covered Bond Conference in Porto on September 12.
