Hawksford shortlisted for two prestigious Citywealth awards

Hawksford has been shortlisted for two prestigious Citywealth Magic Circle Awards: Independent Trust Company of the Year and Trustee of the Year.

Now in their eighth year, the awards have become an established event in the wealth calendar and one at which Hawksford has enjoyed past success; in 2011 Hawksford was awarded the title of Trust Company of the Year.

'I am delighted that Hawksford has been shortlisted for these prestigious awards. Our nominations are testament to the continuing dedication of our team who have been instrumental in growing and strengthening the business since the management buyout in 2008,' said Peter Murley, chief executive, Hawksford. ‘I am also particularly delighted for Julian Hayden (pictured) to be shortlisted in the Trustee of the Year category. It is great to be representing Jersey in such a positive way.'

Julian Hayden, director of Hawksford is one of seven individuals shortlisted for the prestigious Trustee of the Year award. Mr Hayden has extensive expertise in fiduciary services and is part of the executive team that heads up Hawksford Succession Planning, Hawksford Advisory and Hawksford Family Office. Mr Hayden has more than 25 years of experience in estate and succession planning and specialises in trusts and alternative structures.

Each year the awards bring together the elite of advisers in the wealth industry as well as being an established event for philanthropists and Citywealth's ultra high net worth readership.

In 2012 the awards attracted nearly 400 experts from 140 different organisations, including the leading law firms, trust companies, family offices, tax advisors, investment managers and bankers in the wealth sector, to recognise the achievements of the industry during the past year.

Winners will be announced at the Citywealth Awards dinner in London on 16 May.
