Robert Walters scores a hat trick at The Asian Banker Supporting Industry Awards 2010

Singapore

Robert Walters added yet another win to its list of accolades this year when it won The Asian Banker Supporting Industry Achievement Award for Strategic Executive Search to the Commercial Banking Industry, Mid-Level Category, for 2010. The awards ceremony for The Asian Banker award was held last night in Singapore at the Asian Civilisation Museum, with the full support of the Monetary Authority of Singapore.

The Asian Banker Supporting Industry Achievement Award is widely acknowledged by the financial services industry as the highest possible accolade available to professionals in the industry as recognised in the Asia Pacific and Gulf regions today. Established in 2001, it is one of the most difficult and most exclusive awards for any top banker or players in the financial services industry to win because of its stringent evaluation process.

The Awards panel consisted of a prestigious panel of global advisers led by Mr David Eldon, the former Chairman of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation. The assessment for the awards is made on four inter-related criteria:

1. The financial performance of the business under consideration
2. Specific achievement in the year under review
3. Based on a well-communicated vision
4. Augmentation by a good team

Robert Walters was recognised for its success within the region and earned acclaim for the high quality, stability and maturity of its working relationships with its banking clients. The organisation was also recognised for its financially strong position and diversified portfolio, which have enabled it to remain competitive through the industry downturn. Robert Walters is proud to have won this award for the last three consecutive years.

Commenting on the receipt of the award, Richard Parnell, CEO of Asia Pacific, said:

"On behalf of all of my colleagues throughout the region, we are delighted to receive this acknowledgment of a high quality, team effort".
