PwC Canada will verify the process and validate the results of the upcoming Wealth Professional Awards
Wealth Professional (WP) and PwC Canada (PricewaterhouseCoopers) are teaming up to ensure that the upcoming Wealth Professional Awards reach the highest possible standards, as expected by followers of the publication or brand.
With the Wealth Professional Awards becoming bigger and more complex with each passing year, Wealth Professional felt the time was right to join forces with an independent third party who can verify the process and validate the results.
“Wealth Professional and the Wealth Professional Awards team have worked scrupulously since the inception of the event to create a transparent selection and voting process,” said Jessica Duce, project director. “This involves an industry-wide call for nominations, finalist submissions and judging by a panel of independent experts and veterans in the financial services industry, who independently vote for their choice of winners, according to strict criteria.
“The addition of PwC Canada to adjudicate the exhaustive selection process adds further credence to the awards and will further solidify these as the premier recognition in the industry.”
As one of the largest professional services firms in the world – delivering assurance, tax and consulting on a global basis – PwC was the ideal choice as Official Ballot Accountants.
“We’re proud to partner with Wealth Professional as official ballot accountants for the Wealth Professional Awards,” said Robin Taylor, risk assurances service partner at PwC Canada. “We’re looking forward to making an important contribution to this exciting event with the professionalism, independent and thorough procedure the deserving nominees expect.”
A total of 24 award categories will recognize the leading advisors, teams/offices, brokerages, fund providers, and service providers for their outstanding achievements, leadership and innovation over the past 12 months.
