Financial News, a prestigious UK based publication, has named the transaction between Vontobel and TwentyFour Asset Management as the best M&A deal at this year’s ceremony of Awards for Excellence, Institutional Asset Management in Europe 2015.

 

This award is in recognition of Vontobel’s vision to decisively broaden its asset management business through targeted investments. TwentyFour Asset Management is recognised as one of Britain’s brightest credit managers. TwentyFour offers innovative solutions and has a strong growth position in the UK, one of Vontobel Asset Management’s strategic markets. For TwentyFour Asset Management the deal represented a significant opportunity to accelerate the firm’s goals and vision by leveraging off Vontobel Asset Management’s global distribution, without compromising TwentyFour’s boutique approach and culture.
