Gold Standard Awards 2018 | Infopro Digital | 24 August 2018 | Palace of Westminster, Westminster, London SW1A 0AA, UK

Building and restoring trust through best practice is key to success for financial services firms. With demands for transparency and better customer outcomes now the norm, the financial services sector is required to demonstrate its capability and to raise its game through higher standards. Higher standards are a major factor in building trust in financial services and one which the Gold Standard Awards fully supports.

Financial services firms that have a well-established corporate culture, alongside transparent structures and procedures are in the best position to demonstrate they are achieving higher standards to help build a better, more sustainable financial services sector in the UK.
The Gold Standard Awards have been supporting higher standards in financial services in the UK for the past 15 years. During this period, economic, political and regulatory changes have witnessed a drive towards greater accountability and a call for firms to go beyond standard practice to fulfil customer needs.

The awards not only take account of a company's capability to conduct business, but assess standards of service, financial strength, fair value and trust, as well as governance and social responsibility which reflect the current financial landscape.
