The Funds Europe Awards 2025 will recognise Manager of the Year categories across equities, fixed income and private markets.
For equities and fixed income managers, the shortlisted providers will be judged against factors including good returns (or minimal drawdowns in difficult markets) and excellent risk management.
Private markets managers serving institutional investors will be considered against factors including successful fundraising for a new strategy or fund, returns, investment processes, operational processes, and client testimonials.
And those aiming to clinch the Most Innovative Firm in Private Markets category, the judges will be looking to creativity and impact. This may include examples of ‘democratisation’ or providing a niche product, or a new way of looking at operational issues, alongside evidence of fundraising, returns, investment and operational processes and client testimonials.
