There is still time to enter this year’s IPE Awards – but hurry, as judging is set to begin at the end of September.

The 44 categories in this year’s awards reflect the diverse investment strategies and structures that Europe’s pension funds implement as they strive for excellence and innovation. 

The aim of the awards is to create a unique, annual, peer-led benchmark to enable pension funds to measure their performance and exchange ideas.

Commodities has returned to the list of categories, which also includes awards for best strategies in ESG, fixed income, equities, infrastructure, portfolio construction, active and passive management, and alternatives.

These sit alongside themed categories, country and regional prizes, and European-level awards.

Last year saw PensionDanmark secure the highly prized European Pension of the Year award for the second year running and fourth time overall, while chief executive Torben Möger Pedersen took the Outstanding Industry Contribution title for his tireless commitment to the evolution of Europe’s pensions sector.

This year’s Awards presentation and dinner will take place on 3 December at Tivoli Congress Center in Copenhagen, Denmark, as part of IPE’s annual conference.
