Financial Services Council and Workplace Savings handed out their annual awards at its recent conference.

This year, the focus was ‘Shaping Futures’, and the judges looked for how award nominees were championing consumers and innovation in the sector for each of the award categories.

FSC chairman Rob Flanagan said “It’s important that we take the time to celebrate the rising stars of our industry and, this year, it was particularly difficult to pick winners from such a high calibre of nominations.”

WSNZ Chairman and judge, David Biegel, said “These best practice awards demonstrate the effort and dedication those in the industry put into improving communication. Many congratulations to all the nominees and to this year’s winners.”
