“I would like to congratulate all the winners and their teams. In a complex environment, marked by high geopolitical and social risks in France and abroad, transparency is one of the keys to a relationship of trust between management companies and their investors. Funds are increasingly being challenged, so they need to step up their communication and reporting processes”, said Laurent Rouyrès, Chairman and founder of the Labrador group.
On Thursday 29 February, the prize-winners took part in a webinar organised from 9am to 10am in the presence of : Sophie Chateau, Partner, Director of Investor Relations at LBO France – Jean-Marie Souclier, Chairman of Sogenial Immobilier – Gwenaëlle Boucly, Marketing & Communications Director at Capza – Julien Commarieu, ESG, Risk and Compliance Manager at Rgreen Invest.

This 2nd edition of the Asset Management Transparency Awards shows that while the transparency of asset management companies’ communications is improving, there is still room for improvement in terms of education. Nevertheless, the trend is positive, with an average level of transparency of 40.8% across all categories, compared with 38.0% in 2023, an increase of 2.8% this year. These results are encouraging and are driven in particular by the development of extra-financial supports (+3.7 points for an average level of 39%), which are evolving to meet the criteria imposed by new regulations.
