How finalists were selected
The Commercial Finance Awards program, in conjunction with event stakeholders Accountants Daily, The Adviser, Momentum Media, and a panel of leading commercial finance professionals, has developed a robust awards methodology to form the backbone for assessing, analysing, and benchmarking Australia’s leading commercial finance professionals and businesses.
All submissions undergo a thorough audit process and are checked against category-eligible criteria based on the information provided in the submission.
Submissions deemed eligible were reviewed and assessed by a panel of Momentum Media events and editorial team members and executives, plus industry stakeholders where required, to determine the finalists for each category.
Finalist submissions will now be delivered to a panel of respected professionals and business leaders, who assess each submission against the criteria of each award category.
