Methodology
Our winners are determined by three factors, the first of which is the number of votes received. The voting
forms were distributed to Acquisition International Magazine’s dedicated base of 53,000+ subscribers.
Beyond this we also have an in-house database of 150,000 individuals, all of whom have been actively
involved in some form of transactional activity over the course of the last two years. The second factor is
our substantial in-house research. This is a vital stage on the basis that we accept both self and third party
nominations. Thirdly, we ask the nominees to supply supporting documents which they feel may cement theirnominations – all items we are sent are taken into consideration.
