The vast majority of awards were voted on by the market, from shortlists compiled by GlobalCapital’s editorial team. In compiling the shortlists, we took feedback from the market through a survey, and in direct discussions, studied league tables, submissions and other data, and picked out lists of credible winners, all of which would have been richly deserving of an award. Qualities we were looking for included exceptional execution, overcoming challenging circumstances, bold or innovative structures, good market judgement/timing, strong results for clients, excellent service etc. We provided a short text box for respondents to make a nomination case but we were also happy to have informal discussions by phone as well.
In mid-March we put these shortlists to a broad vote from the market, receiving more than 3,000 valid responses, from 800 firms. These included more than 400 investor responses and 350 issuers. By title, we had more than 125 votes from the C-suite, 250 managing directors, 80 portfolio managers, and 125 partners.
Separately to the polling and shortlisting process, we invited market participants to pitch for three categories: Overall Securitization Bank of the Year, Securitization Deal of the Year, and Private Securitization of the Year.
All the awards categories are listed below, with winners and nominated firms/deals. If you have any questions regarding the awards, please contact Owen Sanderson, structured credit editor, on +44(0)7737487357.
Congratulations to the winners and nominees!
