We are extremely proud to announce that our very own Jade Gani was the winner of the Young Practitioner of the Year at the STEP awards last night.
STEP is the global professional association for those advising families across generations. Jade, and the private client team as a whole, have worked particularly hard during the past few years, especially during the pandemic, and this recognition is very much deserved.
The Judges said: In a very strong field, our winner stood out not only for their considerable professional accomplishments but for their selfless commitment to others through their pro-bono and charitable efforts. They devoted significant time, energy and passion to those less fortunate. During a year when many were challenged, they rose above the fray in several ways, including providing free wills for NHS staff.
The awards have been described by notable practitioners as:-
“The very best in the private client industry – everyone appreciates that the entries are genuinely and fully scrutinised and independently and rigorously judged – worth winning in other words!” (Ceris Gardner TEP, Maurice Turnor Gardner LLP)
“The Oscars of our industry and the one all of us wish to win. Clients, staff and competitors all look to these awards as a measure of quality.” (Mark McMullen, Stonehage Fleming)
Stephen Puri, Aston Bond CEO commented:
“We are delighted for Jade. She continues to work hard and strive for the very best and this result is testament to her commitment to work and clients alike.”
