News » Industry Leaders Gather at Insto Distinction Awards
This week Insto held its 9th annual Distinction awards, recognising excellence in Australia’s Capital Markets. Over 300 of the country’s most prominent financiers and dealmakers attended the function at Doltone House in Sydney.
The coveted banker of the year award was received by John Stewart of National Australia Bank. It was a fine night for UBS who claimed the investment bank of the year award participating in all 2007’s benchmark capital markets transactions. Insto’s CFO of the year award went to Chris Skilton of Suncorp-Metway in a year in which he oversaw one of Australia’s largest mergers.
In the debt related categories, CBA claimed bond house of the year, Macquarie retained its ABS house of the year title and UBS wrestled back the hybrid house of the year award.
The full listing of distinction awards winners can be found on Insto's web site. The February edition of Insto magazine will feature full write-ups on all the awards.
Congratulations to the winners, and sincerest thanks to all in the markets who assisted in the awards process.
