The Moneyfacts Awards are the highlight of the personal finance calendar, and this year's ceremony is set to take place on 6 June at an evening summer party in the Pavilion at the Tower of London. The finalists of this year's awards have just been announced – so if you're looking for a new financial product, these could be the ones to make a beeline for!
The awards showcase the providers who have truly excelled in their sectors, and because the winners are chosen through a combination of rigorous product analysis and intermediary feedback, the Moneyfacts Awards are able to celebrate the best products and service in the personal finance world.
This means the winners will have an award that's a true badge of quality, and consumers can trust that, when they see a Moneyfacts winners' logo, they'll have a product that has an independent stamp of approval.
Here at Moneyfacts we welcome the opportunity to reward those providers who can deliver the best level of service possible, and hope that in doing so we'll give consumers a helping hand when comparing products. The full list of finalists can be seen below – good luck to all, and we'll see you in June!
