Latest News - Scottish Financial Services Awards 2011
The Scottish Financial Risk Academy was delighted to be the recipient of a nomination in the 2011 Scottish Financial Services Awards.
The awards scheme, led by Scottish Financial Enterprise, in association with Ernst & Young, assessed entrants on their contribution to Scotland's standing as a financial centre, long term perspective, benefits for customers, innovation and imagination.
SFRA was nominated for "creating a successful collaboration between industry and academe that enhances Scotland's international appeal as a financial centre where serious thinking takes place."
Six companies and organisations in total have been recognised in the 2011 awards. The overall winner was Aberdeen Asset Management, for energy and commitment in developing its business in Asia and for innovation in meeting client demand for products based on Chinese government bonds.
The award nominations were covered in the Scotsman on 17 November. Further details may be found on the Scottish Financial Enterprise website.
