As the year winds down, sister publication Private Equity International‘s 2019 Awards process is gearing up. Voting has begun.

Every year since 2001 we’ve given you – the industry – the opportunity to determine the outcome of private equity’s most extensive set of global awards.

With 17 secondaries categories this year, some of which are fresh additions, there’s never been a better time to let us know about the great work your firm has done over the past year.

Here are the secondaries categories:

  • Preferred equity deal of the year (global)
  • Direct secondaries deal of the year (global)
  • LP sale of the year in Europe
  • GP-led deal of the year in Europe
  • Secondaries firm of the year in Europe
  • Secondaries advisor of the year in Europe
  • Secondaries law firm of the year in Europe
  • LP sale of the year in the Americas
  • GP-led deal of the year in the Americas
  • Secondaries firm of the year in the Americas
  • Secondaries advisor of the year in the Americas
  • Secondaries law firm of the year in North America
  • LP sale of the year in Asia
  • GP-led deal of the year in Asia
  • Secondaries firm of the year in Asia
  • Secondaries advisor of the year in Asia
  • Secondaries law firm of the year in Asia

To help you navigate the voting process we’ve drawn up a shortlist for each category based on our coverage throughout the year, our conversations with the market and your submissions. You can also add your own choice, if you feel the rightful winner isn’t on our list.

The rules for voting are simple: you may only vote once; you may not vote for yourself or your own firm nor engage in block voting; and non-corporate email addresses will be discounted (so, no Hotmail or Gmail entries). The polls close on Friday, 10 January, with results revealed in March.

We can’t wait to find out your thoughts.
