Global Financials TopGun Investment Minds Announced by Brendan Wood International
PALM BEACH, FL, March 15, 2011 (TOPGUN PRESS) – Performance and Career advisory firm Brendan Wood International today announced the results of the firm’s annual poll naming the TopGun Investment Minds in the financial sector, including banks, financial services firms and insurance companies.
TopGun Investment Minds are selected by a unique global panel of 600 internationally recognized sell-side analysts.
“This year has been a trying period for investment in a sector that has underperformed its rivals” said Chairman Brendan Wood. “Analysts on our panel and portfolio managers take investment in this sector very seriously and personally. All these professionals on both sides of the Street actually work in financial institutions and most of them have significant personal positions in their own employers’ stock.”
In selecting TopGuns, analysts focused on integrity, investment wisdom, outstanding insight into the industry, deep understanding of particular investment targets and investment judgment. “This award, from the toughest analysts in the game, is a very prestigious one,” Johann Rodrigues, Managing Director of the Panel, said. “It signals the admiration of a highly professional and fiercely competitive group that has a big personal stake in the industry. They are not easily impressed.”
Being named a TopGun Investment Mind is an ultimate professional accolade for money managers. Coming from a dispassionate audience, often described as ruthlessly objective, the award is based upon day-to-day familiarity with a portfolio manager’s thinking and expertise over time.
