The International Adviser Best Practice Awards for the global financial advice community is returning for 2026 returns with revamped categories and the chance for the world’s best advisory firms to compete for a series of top Best Practice awards.
These flagship advisory best practice awards are back for 2026, following a short hiatus since the last awards were announced in 2024 and are now available to enter with 10 different awards across 7 separate regions with an overall global winner in each category.
This year we are delighted to bring back these awards on what is IA’s 20th anniversary since launch and we hope that the industry will once again embrace these awards as the biggest best practice advisory awards in the industry.
