Day 1: AsianInvestor 2012 Service Provider Awards

AsianInvestor is pleased to announce the winners of its 2012 Service Provider Awards, recognising excellence in supporting the buy-side in Asia Pacific. Tomorrow is a public holiday, so we resume our awards announcements on Wednesday with prime broking. Later in the week come the winners in legal, accounting, index and trading & execution services.

The awards will be presented at our black-tie dinner at the JW Marriott hotel in Hong Kong, to be held on the evening of Thursday, November 22. For enquiries and sponsorship opportunities, please email Rebekka Kristin or call her on +852 2122 5203.
