GlobalCapital is delighted to announce that the survey for its Covered Bond Awards 2022 is open. Congratulations to all those who made it to the shortlists. We trust that you will only answer those questions based on your personal knowledge. Your vote will remain strictly confidential.
Awards Period
The awards take account of business conducted in the 12 months from August 2021 to July 2022, and not just this calendar year.

The voting period will end at 5pm BST on Friday, August 5.
Rules
• Block voting, for one institution across all categories it has been nominated for, is not permitted.
• Voting for your own institution is not permitted.
• One vote per institution.
• Banks within a single network will be considered as a single institution.
• The first vote from an institution is the one that counts, unless your institution has contacted Bill Thornhill, covered bonds editor, to specify otherwise.
Who can vote
• Lead managers must have syndicated at least one publicly distributed benchmark covered bond from August 2021 to July 2022.
• Issuers will have launched at least one publicly placed transaction of €250m or more in the past 18 months.
• Investors will have bought covered bonds between July 2021 and August 2022 with the more active getting a larger weighting.
