Institutional Excellence Awards: Winners revealed

AsianInvestor is delighted to announce the winners of the 2022 Institutional Excellence Awards.

These awards are designed to recognise the region’s leading asset owners in terms of their  capabilities and willingness to adapt to changing industry and market conditions across the Asia Pacific.

We recognise that the institutional make-up and objectives of asset owners can vary widely in the region, along with how sophisticated their investment, ESG and other strategies are and how these evolve.

As noted in previous years, these awards are not designed merely to choose the most advanced investors in each category, but the ones that continue to push ahead to improve and take deliberate efforts to become more sophisticated, process-driven investors while keeping an eye on long-term returns.

Detailed write-ups explaining our decisions and profiling these institutions will appear over the next few days.

On behalf of the AsianInvestor team, we heartily congratulate the winners for helping us successfully close out another round of the Institutional Excellence Awards.
