Portfolio Partners scoops pool at Business Awards
Portfolio Partners has won all three of the categories it entered into in the 2006 Australian Business Awards.
The Melbourne-based fund manager took out the ‘recommended employer’, ‘innovation’ and ‘environmental awareness’ categories of the national awards program.
It was the first time it had entered the awards, which are “dedicated to raising the profile of companies that are committed to business excellence”.
Head of retail business Bernadette Spiteri described the three awards as “an example of how we continue to strive to differentiate Portfolio Partners in a very competitive market”.
The awards are an “endorsement of our approach to doing business through initiatives” involving staff and the community, Spiteri said.
These initiatives include the “incorporation of sustainable research into our mainstream process, and the launch of our Long/Short Sustainability Trust”.
“Others include our sponsorship of cycling events, implementation of our staff health program through Fitness2Live, and emphasising environmental awareness in our workplace,” she said.
