Financial News is delighted to showcase its 3rd annual Investment Banking dinner, exclusively for the senior investment banking community. The dinner which hosted 50 of the most influential bankers was held at the famous Scottish and Jazz restaurant Boisdale in Belgravia, on Monday 28th November 2011. The evening was kindly sponsored by Russell Reynolds Associates and Charities Aid Foundation.

In addition to the fine Scottish fare and fabulous wines, guests enjoyed the presentation of a handful of the 8th annual Awards for Excellence in Investment Banking, Europe 2011, with the full shortlist and winners from this year’s awards highlighted on this website. To decide the awards, Financial News sought the expertise of a distinguished independent panel of more than 40 industry practitioners to vote on the shortlist created by our editorial team.
