Global Investor has extended by two weeks the deadline for submissions to the Investment Excellence Awards 2021 and we would like to urge asset managers, service providers and tech firms to make their submissions for this year.
The deadline for submissions, which was originally set for today, Friday July 2, has been extended to Friday July 16 to allow firms more time to manage their submissions.
As in previous years, the awards are arranged into three distinct groups: asset managers, service providers and technology firms.
These are the categories for the Investment Excellence Awards 2021:
Asset Management Awards | Service Provider Awards | Technology Awards |

Asset Manager of the Year | ESG Custodian of the Year | Technology Innovation of the Year |

We have also tweaked our submission process to ensure that entrants can make their pitches quickly and easily.
The relevant period for this year runs from July 1 2020 to June 30 2020 and entrants should focus on innovation, mandate wins and performance in that period. We accept entries submitted by third parties, such as PR firms, on behalf of their clients.
The deadline for submissions is now July 16 2021, at which point the entries will be organised into short lists and sent out to our panels of judges comprising industry experts from the relevant sectors. The contents of the submissions will remain confidential throughout and will not be published.
The winners will be announced online in the first instance and the awards will be presented at a live event which we hope to host later in the year.
