Investment Week is delighted to reveal the winners of its third annual Women in Investment Awards, which took place in London last night (27 November) in partnership with HSBC Global Asset Management.

Having been a success for the past two years, the event returned for its third to celebrate the achievements of women in the fund management industry.

The awards, for whichInvestment Weekreceived over 1,000 submissions, aim to recognise the achievements of women in a sector where they are currently under-represented, particularly at senior level.

They also honour companies and individuals who have helped support women in the workplace and have tried to improve diversity within their businesses.
