Here is the list of winners of this year's gala evening celebration of outstanding wealth management practitioners in Hong Kong.

Following the inaugural ceremony to honour outstanding wealth management professionals and firms last year in Hong Kong, winners were honoured yesterday in the city for the WealthBriefing Hong Kong Awards 2015 in the magnificent setting of the JW Marriott Hotel.

Ranging across categories such as investment management, technology, private banking and legal services, the awards are designed to recognise the achievements of individuals and businesses in a market undergoing constant change and upheaval.

As with last year’s awards, the winners were chosen through a rigorous judging process by a distinguished panel of experts from across the industry and this publication is once again deeply grateful to the time and attention given by the judges, as well as for all the firms who took part. As the judges stated, to have reached the shortlist, never mind to have won an award, is testimony to high standards.
