Awards

We only went and won it again!

We are pleased to reveal that Whitechurch Securities successfully defended our crown at the Money Marketing Awards this month as we picked up Best Discretionary Adviser for the second year running, beating Hargreaves Lansdown into second place.

The Awards night was held at the Grosvenor House Hotel amongst over 1500 financial journalists and industry peers, and were hosted by TV impressionist and satirist, Rory Brenmner. Naturally, we are extremely pleased to win the award again and it emphasises our commitment to offering and supplying successful discretionary management services.

The judges were won over by the company’s increased resources and commitment to the discretionary concept, with strong performance and proven popularity amongst IFAs. The panel particularly liked the idea of the Energy and Global Shift strategy that focuses on key themes for
the 21st century. The judges felt this demonstrated a commitment to take on new investment themes and observed that it has performed very well since launch.

The company was also able to show the judges that despite winning the award in previous years, it is not content to rest on its laurels. It intends to boost its online presence in 2008, following on from recent innovations such as free monthly email bulletins and investment guides.

Naturally, we were delighted to win this award in 2007, but to win it for the second year running makes it very special indeed. The recognition of our peers in the industry and the second award in  as many years highlights our ongoing commitment in ensuring that we continue to provide high quality discretionary management services to new and existing clients alike.
