Banks, investors, borrowers, private equity houses and law firms are invited to vote for the best performers of 2011. Please click here to cast your vote.
And a quick reminder that the date of the 9th Syndicated Loans & Leveraged Finance Dinner, where we will reveal the winners, has changed from February 8 to January 31, 2012 (contact Oliver Hawkins on +44 20 7779 7304 for information on how to attend).
In January, EuroWeek will publish the shortlist for each award, based on the institutions and deals that get the most votes.
Each institution is only allowed ONE VOTE, so please consult your colleagues before submitting your votes. A full list of the categories is available below.
Institutions CANNOT VOTE FOR THEMSELVES. In the bank categories, institutions must vote in a category to be eligible to win it.
For some of these categories, you have been invited to choose from a shortlist of banks. These shortlists have been made up from the top 10 bookrunners in each category by both allocations and number of deals according to Dealogic. The full lists of nominees for these categories can be found here.
In those categories, you can still vote for banks not on the list by selecting ‘other’ and typing in the name.
Your participation in the poll and your votes will remain confidential.
If you have any questions about the poll, please contact EuroWeek's loan editor at nflitman@euroweek.com.
