Ladies and gentlemen, the highly anticipated third edition of the RankiaPro Europe Awards is finally upon us! We are thrilled to announce that in the upcoming weeks, we will be unveiling the crème de la crème of the financial industry – the Fund Selector of the Year, Fund Manager of the Year, Sales Manager of the Year, and Advisor of the Year.
Our team is bursting with excitement at the prospect of recognising and celebrating the outstanding achievements of our esteemed nominees. We are confident that this year’s winners will set a new benchmark for excellence in the industry.
Over the past year, we have had the privilege of getting up close and personal with each of our nominees through our exclusive “Professional of the Month” interviews. We sincerely hope that you have enjoyed reading about their fascinating professional journeys and personal anecdotes, as much as we have enjoyed sharing them with you.

Our prestigious awards will be bestowed upon the most deserving winners using a sophisticated quantitative model. This model will take into account the results of our carefully crafted voting survey, the number of page views garnered by each interview on our website, and the buzz generated on social media platforms such as LinkedIn. Our aim is to recognise the professional whose interview made the greatest impact across the extensive RankiaPro Europe network.
Cast your vote before the 5th of June!
