Last night Asset Servicing Times (AST) hosted its first Industry Excellence Awards.
The ceremony took place at The Londoner Hotel, Leicester Square, the newest five star venue in London, which opened on 6th September.
Through this event, AST recognised leaders in innovation and service excellence across the securities service industry, while raising money for Mind Bromley, Lewisham and Greenwich along with a number of children's sports charities.
The Securities Service Advisory Group (TSSAG) joined AST in evaluating entries for the 20 awards categories, providing an independent and objective assessment process to identify industry leaders and areas of outstanding contribution.
Clarke Carlisle, former professional footballer and Mind mental health advocate, presented the awards and delivered a thought-provoking and rousing keynote speech, which rightfully received a standing ovation.
AST was overwhelmed by the generous bids for lots on its silent auction. Although final numbers are not yet confirmed, it is clear that this has been a highly successful charity fundraising event.
The team at AST would like to extend their thanks to Clarke Carlisle, TSSAG, all those in attendance and everyone else who helped to make the night unforgettable, while raising money for such a worthwhile charity.
AST founder and group publisher, Justin Lawson, says: “I’m delighted at the response I’ve had from AST’s first Industry Excellence Awards. More than 200 people came together for the event, with networking continuing into the evening. I’m pleased that we’ve already raised so much money for an excellent charity and astounded at everyone’s generosity.”
