Martina Korudova, Manager at Laven Partners and organizer of the awards, said: “We are very happy with the interest we have created. It is important that participants acknowledge areas like operational infrastructure, risk management, compliance and good governance. The fact that managers are also starting to recognize ESG will stimulate investors’ trust and help build a better reputation for the industry.
Jerome Lussan, CEO of Laven Partners said: “We set out to do the awards to prove two things. That managers were able to respond to investors’ demands for an industry that recognizes the importance of operational excellence and to show that managers can share information if this is facilitated through software, which can then grade the information automatically matching answers on operations and compliance against preset standards and laws. We did this using our ODD software. It all went very smoothly. We thank Legends 4 Legends for allowing us to do this and pass on our good wishes to the charity that underpins their motivation Alternatives4Children (A4C).”
