These awards conclude this year's Institutional Excellence Awards. Click here to find this year's best market asset owners here, and click here to find out which organisations were named the best by asset owner category.
To decide on the recipients of these awards, our editorial team requested direct input from an array of leading asset owners across the region.
We then canvassed senior executives at fund management firms, consultancies, banks and other service providers for their expertise, to generate a shortlist of asset owners deserving of recognition. We then, where necessary, requested additional information from short-listed institutions, before making our final decisions.
AsianInvestor would like to thank the many people throughout the region who helped us for their time and candour.
Asia Pacific is a region with highly diverse asset owners of varying sophistication, capabilities and objectives. These awards are not designed to merely to choose the most advanced investors in each institutional investor class, but to recognise asset owners that continue to push themselves to improve, or to maintain a standard of market excellence over long periods of time.
In some cases the awards recognise asset owners that have made incremental improvements. In other cases they highlight organisations that embody regional or even global capabilities. Our focus particularly emphasised the internal capabilities of asset owners and their ability to adapt to long-term changes in market return expectations.
All award recipients will be invited to attend our Institutional Excellence Awards black-tie dinner on Wednesday, December 5 at the Westin Singapore. This will run in conjunction with the 10th annual Southeast Asia Institutional Investment Forum, taking place on December 5 and December 6 at the same venue.
