The Adjudication Process

Once nominations close on Monday March 5 2012, each nomination will be independently adjudicated by a panel of selected experts.

This panel will produce a shortlist in each category during the month of March.

The shortlisted contenders in each category will be announced on this website on March 30, 2012, prior to the Awards Evening.

Winners in all categories except those of Deal of the Year and Dealmaker of the Year will be agreed prior to the Awards Evening and announced at the Awards Dinner.

Judging decisions are final and no correspondence will be entered into.

Voting at the Awards Dinner

Winners for the categories of Deal and Dealmaker of the Year will be chosen from the shortlist at the Awards Dinner by the audience through an electronic voting mechanism.
