Securities Finance Times debuted its first Industry Excellence Awards on 10 June 2022 at The Londoner Hotel.
Welcoming influential industry names from across the sector, host Neil Griffiths presented 21 prestigious awards to the deserving winners.
The Awards are dedicated to supporting and recognising talented and dedicated firms, individuals and departments across the industry.
Selected by an esteemed judging panel of industry experts, attendees congratulated Lifetime Achievement Award winner Brian Lamb, chief executive officer at EquiLend, for his outstanding contributions to the securities finance industry across his career.
EquiLend also secured another win after collecting an award for Post Trade Technology Provider of the Year.
The Women in Securities Finance group was awarded Diversity and Inclusion Initiative of the Year for demonstrating commitment to equality and inclusion on a sustainable basis. The inspirational group of women have promoted D&I in the securities finance industry for a long term, positively impacting the sector in terms of equality and inclusion.
Other winners on the night included State Street, a recipient of the Global Lender of the Year award, S&P Global (previously IHS Markit), winner of the Global Data Provider of the Year award, and Wematch, which took home the Trading System of the Year award.
As well as celebrating excellence within the securities finance industry and outstanding contributions from its leading figures, the event acknowledged the important work of Mind Bromley, Lewisham and Greenwich.
Mind is a mental health charity based in England and Wales, which offers information and advice to people with mental health problems and lobbies government and local authorities on their behalf.
A charity auction hosted by the Industry Excellence Awards — which presented 10 items including a weeks’ stay in a four-bedroom Florida townhouse, a signed Tyson Fury boxing glove, and a signed Ray Parlour autobiography — raised thousands of pounds for the local charity. The exact figure raised for Mind is yet to be finalised.
