Why we are sharing this news
First, we believe clients and colleagues like to know what is happening inside the firm. Next, we want to recognize the work Jacob puts into his role as Managing Partner. Most importantly, we want to share the news of Jacob Taurel recognized in Citywire Next Generation 2025 with full context. That context includes the disclosures that apply to any industry award. We also think transparency matters whenever a firm talks about itself.
Of course, an award is only one data point. It says something about how a third party viewed a professional at a moment in time. However, it does not tell you whether a particular firm or advisor is right for your situation.
How to read industry recognitions
Industry awards can be useful, but they deserve a careful reading. For example, each publisher sets its own criteria. It also decides who can take part and how it chooses recipients. As a result, two awards with similar names may measure very different things.
Before relying on any recognition, consider asking a few questions. First, who granted the award, and is that organization independent? Next, did the recipient or the firm pay a fee to take part? In addition, what criteria did the publisher use? Finally, does the recognition relate to investment results, client outcomes, or something else entirely?
In practice, these questions apply to every award you see in financial services. They apply equally to the news of Jacob Taurel recognized in Citywire Next Generation 2025. For that reason, we include the disclosures below alongside our announcement.
What this means for clients
For clients, day-to-day service stays the same. Your advisory relationship, your agreements, and your points of contact do not change because of this recognition. Instead, we see it as a moment to thank the clients and colleagues who work with Jacob and the wider team every day. Meanwhile, the team will continue to focus on the work that matters most to the people we serve.
