  • Financial Services Group of the Year (Non-Banking)
  • Investment Management Firm of the Year
  • Innovative Fund Manager of the Year
  • Stockbroking Company of the Year

This achievement is particularly significant as three of the Group’s core subsidiaries – United Capital Asset Management, United Capital Trustees, and United Capital Securities clinched the top awards in their respective categories. This highlights the Group’s diverse strengths and its ability to excel across multiple areas within the financial services sector, demonstrating all-around excellence and operational expertise.
