DOUGLAS-based multi family office Boston Group has been shortlisted for Family Office of the Year in the Citywealth Magic Circle Awards 2010. The winners will be announced at a gala awards dinner on 13th May 2010 at The Landmark London Hotel.
The voting process saw industry soundings, nominations and recommendations from advisors, managers and clients distilled down to a list of potential award nominees. Judges were then asked to rank the selection in each category leaving out any names they were unfamiliar with. They also did not judge any category where there might be a conflict issue due to the position the judge holds. The points were gathered up across the judges and the lowest rankings removed.
Arthur Lancaster is the Group Managing Director and a Professional Trustee. He said, “We are delighted to be one of the only six family offices shortlisted for Family Office of the Year. Boston boasts independence, integrity and longevity. Set up specifically to look after a single family and its future generations, it is here for the long term and continues to demonstrate its commitment by carefully expanding its client base and workforce, ensuring any client or corporate acquisition complements its core business and shares the same values and focus on quality of service and client relationship.
“We are a highly motivated and committed team and the best interests of the individual or family are our sole consideration. Having evolved from a single family office, Boston has retained its core value of service and can devise and implement a tailored strategy to help individuals and their families achieve their financial objectives and life goals.”
Now in its fifth year, the Citywealth Magic Circle Awards has become an established presence in the wealth calendar. Each year the Citywealth Magic Circle Awards brings together the elite of advisors in the wealth industry as well as being an established event for philanthropists and the UHNW readership of Citywealth.
