The the winners were announced at a gala event held at the Armani Hotel, Burj Khalifa, Dubai, with over 100 industry leaders from the banking and financial services ecosystem in attendance.

Reflecting on winning this prestigious award, Alex Gemici, Chairman & CEO of Greenstone Equity Partners, said, "Having made substantial investments in building our firm's licensing and compliance program, we are grateful to be recognized for our dedication to regulatory compliance leadership within our industry. This dedication and focus allows us to serve the GCC investment community through our current partnerships with top-tier global fund managers who collectively have AUMs of well-over $1.4 trillion."
Jeff Evans, Managing Director of Greenstone Equity Partners, who accepted the award on behalf of the firm, added, "Greenstone's regulatory compliance program has filled an important gap for leading fund managers who wish to raise capital from the region but lack the required licensing to do so. Our program allows fund managers to partner with Greenstone to remain fully compliant with local laws without the requirement to obtain their own licensing. Our simple onboarding process and collaborative approach have been ideal to global institutional fund managers who are able to retain full control of their local investor relationships while benefiting from compliant fundraising."
