Wealth management and private banking industry consultancy, Sionic, have been handed the honour of winning a WealthBriefing Award.
This is the third time in three years that Sionic has won either the best team or leading individual award.
Showcasing ‘best of breed’ in the European region, the awards have been designed to recognise outstanding organisations grouped by specialism and geography which the prestigious panel of independent judges deemed to have ‘demonstrated innovation and excellence during the last year’.
Each of these categories is highly contested and is subject to a rigorous process before the ultimate winner is selected by the judges. It is this process that makes WealthBriefing awards so prized amongst winners.
The WealthBriefing European Awards are part of a global programme run by WealthBriefing and its sister publications WealthBriefingAsia and Family Wealth Report, encompassing all of the world’s major wealth management centres. Participants around the world recognise that winning awards is particularly important in these challenging times as it gives clients reassurance in the solidity and sustainability of the winner’s business and operating model.
The judges said: “The winner is a fast growing and innovative customer centric business that receives very positive feedback from its client base. Additionally, the judging panel were impressed with Sionic’s thought leadership and identification of industry themes.”
Sionic’s Wealth Management & Private Banking practice has an outstanding track record of delivering strategic advice, business and people improvement projects for a global range of wealth managers, private banks, boutique firms and family offices, software and service providers and platform providers worldwide. The team is led by Sionic Managing Partner Gilly Green, who herself won the 2021 Leading Individual Advisor award, and whose team won the ‘Best Management Consultancy’ 2020 award.
Gilly Green (pictured) said: “We are thrilled to have once again been recognised for our outstanding Wealth Management & Private Banking practice at the WealthBriefing European Awards. As experts in our field, we’re delighted that our contributions to thought leadership in the Wealth Management industry have been acknowledged by the judges in their feedback. To achieve three awards in three years is truly a testament to the fantastic team here at Sionic and our consistency is why we have been given such great client feedback. I’m very proud of what we have achieved!”
ClearView Financial Media’s CEO, and Publisher of WealthBriefing, Stephen Harris, was first to extend his congratulations to all the winners. He said: “The organisations and individuals who triumphed in these awards are all worthy winners, and I would like to extend my heartiest congratulations to the winners and to those who have put so much work into each winning submission.
“These awards were independently and expertly judged solely on the basis of entrants’ submissions and their response to a number of specific questions, which were answered by focusing on the client experience rather than purely quantitative performance metrics. That is a unique, and I believe, compelling feature. These awards recognise the very best operators in European wealth management, with ‘independence’, ‘integrity’ and ‘genuine insight’ the watchwords of the judging process – such that the awards truly reflect excellence in European wealth management.”
