The basic criterion for the Adam Smith Awards is that they demonstrate best practice and/or innovation as evidenced by any of the following:
Deals may be in any currency/country/region and only deals implemented between 1st January 2024 and 30th April 2025 qualify.
All winning solutions are profiled in case studies which appear on our website and are promoted in our Treasury Insights newsletter and on social media. The case studies are based on the winning nominations and are written by our editorial team. The text is submitted to the winners for their approval prior to publication. By submitting a nomination in the Adam Smith Awards you accept that if you win an award, a case study outlining the details of your winning solution will be published.
Please don’t be dissuaded from submitting a nomination in the event that you feel your company may not qualify for whatever reason.
Think about the geographic coverage and breadth of the solution, how best practice and innovation are being evidenced and focus on the benefits, both qualitative as well as quantitative. We recognise the majority of solutions entered will involve a bank and/or other service partner, but your submission should focus on what you/your treasury function did rather than what your partner did.
You do not need to be a major multinational to qualify. Focus on the problem that the solution you have implemented, or are in the process of implementing, addresses. Quantify the benefits, both qualitative as well as quantitative.
If you feel your submission qualifies for more than one category, please tick the relevant categories, up to a maximum of three, on the submission form.
Please submit any relevant supporting documentation if you think it will add to your submission.
