The 17th annual IFR Asia awards dinner drew a crowd of over 300 of Asia’s capital markets community to Hong Kong’s Four Seasons hotel on February 19 to honour the winning deals and institutions of 2013.

The guest speaker for the evening, British economist and author Tim Harford, regaled guests with an entertaining and impeccably researched account of John Maynard Keynes’s rather unimpressive early efforts in the stock markets, a parable for knowing when it is time to change your mind.

The awards themselves showcased a range of industries. Gajah Tunggal president director Christopher Chan accepted the Indonesia Bond of the Year award, while Country Garden CFO Estella Ng collected the trophy for Asia’s top High-Yield Bond of 2013.

Khazanah’s Mohd Izani Ghani was on hand to accept the Islamic Issue of the Year award, and Arthur Lang of CapitaLand picked up the night’s top Structured Equity Issue trophy. The two top awards went to Kong Sooi Lin, deputy CEO of CIMB Investment Bank, for IFR Asia’s Domestic Bank of the Year, and to Matthew Hanning, head of corporate client solutions for Asia at UBS, IFR Asia’s Bank of the Year.

IFR Asia is also delighted to have added to its fundraising efforts for the magazine’s partner charity, Save the Children, with the evening’s prize draw. IFR events worldwide have now raised more than £22m (US$36m) for this fantastic cause over the past 19 years.

IFR Asia would like to congratulate the winners once again, and thank all who made the event such a success.
