Asset Risk Consultants (ARC) has been named the Investment Monitoring Company of the Year for the second year in a row at the Annual Citywealth Magic Circle awards.
In addition, ARC’s Group Managing Director, Graham Harrison was named as Outstanding Individual of the Year and Suggestus, ARC’s research portal, was awarded Technology Vendor of the Year.
The Citywealth Magic Circle Awards recognise the best private client advisors and wealth managers in the investment industry. An independent panel of industry judges determine the winners in conjunction with an online voting system. Entries are judged on qualities such as market-leading products and services, innovative solutions to private client dilemmas and overall contribution to the profession.
Matt Lonsdale, ARC’s head of UK business development said: “Winning these awards is a fitting finish to celebrating the 20th anniversary of ARC and the fifth anniversary of the launch of Suggestus. We would like to thank Karen Jones, the team at Citywealth, the judging panel and all those who voted and contributed.”
"Investment reporting and research are two parts of our business we are extremely proud of; they complement our investment consulting services very well, meaning we deliver a suite of services that should be expected of a global private client investment consulting practice."
ARC group managing director Graham Harrison said: "These awards are particularly special because they represent the recognition of one’s peers. Winning them is a true reflection of the ethos at the heart of ARC that our clients value: to promote insight, innovation, independence and integrity.”
