Welcome to the 2023 GlobalCapital European Securitization awards.

As in previous years, the award winners will be decided through a two-step process. The first stage of the process is the call for nominations. This is open to anyone active in the securitization market, and participants are invited to put themselves, their colleagues and peers forward to be shortlisted. A full list of categories can be found below. Nominations should reflect firm and deal activity in the 2022 calendar year.

When making your nominations, you should consider the organisations which have been involved in the most innovative or challenging transactions, the quality of execution and structuring; investment, growth, and progression in the business, or those who have stood out for the breadth and depth of their securitization franchises.

We encourage you to nominate widely outside of your own organisations, but you are also free to nominate you own deals and teams.

From these nominations, GlobalCapital’s editorial team will compile a shortlist in each category. This will be down to our discretion — while the number of people nominating certainly plays a part, our aim is to compile a representative and credible shortlist in each category. These shortlists will then be opened to a market vote for the winners in January 2023.

If you are nominating your own organisation or deal, we encourage you to provide a short submission to support your nomination. This should be a maximum of one side of A4, detailing key accomplishments during the research period in relation to a given category. This may include standout deal work, innovations or improvement in your product or service offering, examples of growth, and support to clients in unusual or demanding circumstances. Differentiation is key and your submission should demonstrate how you have stood out from your competitors. You may upload a single submission covering multiple categories or provide a separate submission for each relevant category in the survey. This information will be used exclusively for the purposes of the awards and will be kept confidential.

The survey will still form the basis for choosing the nominees, but submissions will be used in aggregate to help us compile a representative and credible shortlist in each category. Our awards research team may follow up on your submission with a short call.

While private or limited distribution financings are often the most interesting and award-worthy projects, please bear in mind that the winners are selected through a broad vote from across the European securitization market. It may therefore be best to nominate institutions or deals that are widely known in order to maximise the chances they will be recognised in the voting.
