We are thrilled to announce that we are the proud winners of the “Innovative Client Solution B2B” award at the annual WealthBriefing European Awards 2026. The awards programme recognises the most innovative and exceptional firms, teams and individuals in the wealth management industry today, designed to showcase outstanding organisations grouped by specialism and geography which the prestigious panel of independent judges deemed to have ‘demonstrated innovation and excellence during the last year.
The judging process is known for its independence and rigour, making these awards among the most highly sought-after in the industry. Winning in such a competitive environment underscores the recipients’ commitment to excellence, innovation, and client-centric service.
This is the second year in a row that Firenze have been recognised by WealthBriefing, winning the “Most Promising New Entrant” award in 2025. The evolution from entrant to established solution is demonstrative of the progress we have made in educating the sector on the importance of incorporating Lombard lending into an adviser’s offering.
The WealthBriefing European Awards are part of a global programme run by WealthBriefing and its sister publications, WealthBriefingAsia and Family Wealth Report, encompassing all of the world’s major wealth management centres.
Participants around the world recognise that winning awards is particularly important in these challenging times, as it offers clients reassurance in the solidity and sustainability of the winner’s business and operating model.
Commenting on our win, David Newman, CEO of Firenze, said
“We are incredibly proud to receive this award. It reflects the dedication, expertise, and client-first mindset that drives everything we do. Being honoured by the WealthBriefing Awards for the second year in a row, is recognition of the growth in demand we are seeing in the sector for Lombard lending and is a testament to the team who strive to deliver value for our partners and their clients every day.”
Stephen Harris, CEO of Clearview Financial Media and publisher of WealthBriefing, extended his congratulations to all winners and highly commended firms:
