Euromoney’s Private Banking Awards is the preeminent annual awards programme of the worldwide private banking and wealth management industry.
For over 20 years, the programme has recognised the private banks of distinction across key categories, which today includes high to ultra-high net worth, family office services, succession planning, digital services, discretionary portfolio management, sustainability and more.

ABOUT THE AWARDS
From global awards – including world’s best private bank, and best private bank for entrepreneurs – to multiple regional and country awards, the comprehensive programme covers the business areas of private banking and wealth management that are most important to an institution’s key stakeholders, board and executive management teams.
We seek the best of the best in private banking services globally, regionally and in each country. This simply means we are looking for the banks that can best demonstrate how they have truly excelled over the award period in providing their clients with the best possible advice, service and solutions.
Each award is submission-based, allowing each bank to tell the story of its achievements, innovations and performance over the 12-month award period, which runs from October to September each year.

ASSESSMENT AND JUDGING
• We aim to make the process as transparent as possible.
• Entrants will be assessed by a panel of industry experts and Euromoney’s research team (including the Chief Research Officer, the Head of Research, the Head of Private Banking, the Head of Sustainability and others).
• Entrants will all be scored using frameworks specific to each category.
• Your entry and any information collected during an interview and secondary research, in addition to our team’s knowledge of the market and businesses operating within it, will all contribute to your scores.
• Judges will be allocated categories based on experience and knowledge of these areas with more than one individual judging each category.
• Judges will not be allocated to categories where there might be an obvious or perceived conflict of interest.
• Judges must sign a non-disclosure agreement before reviewing any entries.
• Judges may, at their discretion, nominate entries for additional award categories if it qualifies for recognition in more than one area.
