Backstop Shortlisted for Family Wealth Report Awards 2015

CHICAGO - Jan. 22, 2015 - PRLog -- Backstop Solutions Group – a provider of cloud-based solutions purpose-built to help the institutional investment industry save time, increase productivity and make better investment decisions – is shortlisted for the Family Wealth Report Awards 2015 in the “CRM System” category. Showcasing ‘best of breed’ providers in the global private banking, wealth management and trusted advisor communities, the awards recognize companies, teams and individuals that have ‘demonstrated innovation and excellence during 2014’.

“We’re honored to be shortlisted for these prestigious Awards,” said Clint Coghill, Chairman & CEO, Backstop Solutions Group. “This is a testament to Backstop’s dedication to serving our clients and the institutional investment community, as well as our company growth and product development throughout 2014.”

ClearView Financial Media’s Chief Executive, and Publisher of Family Wealth Report, Stephen Harris, was first to extend his congratulations to the shortlisted firms.  He said: “The firms who have been shortlisted in these awards are all worthy competitors, and I would like to extend my heartiest congratulations. These awards are judged solely on the basis of entrants’ submissions and their response to a number of specific questions, which had to be answered focusing on the client experience, not quantitative performance metrics. That is a unique, and I believe, compelling feature.  These awards will recognize the very best operators in the private client industry, with ‘independence’, ‘integrity’ and ‘genuine insight’ the watchwords of the judging process - such that the awards truly reflect excellence in wealth management. Our aim is to make these annual Awards one of the brightest, and keenly contested highlights in the wealth management calendar.”

Winners will be announced at a gala awards dinner, which will be held in New York on March 12, 2015, at the Mandarin Oriental.
