The awards were organised by trade paper Investment Week, in conjunction with Holden & Partners. In their words, the investment awards are about "recognising those investment houses who are not just talking a good game, but investing in the systems and the people to deliver in this new world.”
The judges looked at both financial performance and the process/criteria for assessing environmental/climate related issues. The winners were announced on Tuesday at an awards ceremony held at the House of Commons, London.
