Monday 15 May 2017

Elaine Graham, Zedra’s Head of Employer Solutions, has been named Woman of the Year at the Citywealth Magic Circle Awards.

Zedra also took home the award for Independent Trust Company of the Year during the ceremony.

Mrs Graham said: "I was very surprised but absolutely delighted to have won especially in a category with so many impressive women in the wealth industry. It really is a great honour to win and I am very grateful to the judges and Citywealth. My client base includes some large corporate clients as well as HNW individuals and as a trustee you touch many parts of the wealth industry which may have contributed to my success in the awards."

Julien Sharpe, Managing Director of Zedra Guernsey, also commented on the awards: "To be named Independent Trust Company of the Year is testament to what makes ZEDRA different. We now have more than 500 employees across 13 offices worldwide and each one has played a part in this success. 

"Elaine is one of a kind. She is incredibly professional, constantly exceeds client expectations and is a fantastic leader. While I may be a little biased, she absolutely deserves this award."

The Citywealth Awards, now in their 12^th year, recognise the best wealth managers and advisors in the private wealth industry, in particular those who invest money with charities, private families and foundations. The contest include online votes from charities, peers and private clients which are shared with a panel of 12 judges before final voting take place.
