How many individuals and/categories can you nominate?
Any professionals can submit up to 2 nominations per category, and up to 5 nominations in total. This will enable the awards to be selected from a diversified pool of nominations.
Who can be nominated?

For “pension funds and institutional investors” categories, nominations are limited to those organizations in Canada (although the individuals and teams don’t have to be based in Canada). For “Investment firm” categories, nominations are limited to those that operate in Canada or have Canadian presence.
What happens after you nominate?
