We name the winners in 17 categories in our inaugural Citywire UAE Awards.
The winners in the inaugural Citywire UAE Awards 2022 have been announced!
Using Citywire’s proprietary ratings data, the 2022 awards recognise the fund managers and asset management groups with funds available in the UAE that have shown the best risk-adjusted performance in recent years.
Citywire has announced winners across 17 categories, with separate awards for fund managers (individuals or teams) and groups.
The Best Fund Manager Awards are calculated on three-year risk-adjusted performance, while the Best Group awards take into account seven years of performance data.
