CFA Society Toronto seeking entries for 2018 Financial Journalism Awards

The CFA Society Toronto is now seeking submissions for the 2018 Financial Journalism Awards.

The awards were first introduced in 2013 to recognizing the contributions of different Canadian-based publications and journalists toward the advancement of investor education, best practice and the promotion of ethics and high professional standards within the financial community.

These awards identify and acknowledge publications and journalists whose work helps consumers and practitioners gain a better understanding of the investment profession.

In order to win, submissions need to be explanatory, relevant, and backed up by data and fact.

“The purpose of the awards is to provide recognition to financial journalists who show exceptional commitment to high professional standards. The financial press plays a critical role in improving transparency and strengthening investor education,” said Devin Crago, CFA, Member Communications Committee Chair.

The three award categories for the 2018 Financial Journalism Awards are Publication of the Year, Journalist of the Year, and Future of Finance Award.

Qualifying publications will be asked to submit three articles from the past 12 months that best demonstrate their commitment to investor education, ethics and high professional standards to media@cfatoronto.ca before 5 p.m. EST on Jan. 15, 2018.
