This is the eighth year that AREF has made a small number of awards recognising achievement and contribution, by its own members and others who support the work of the AREF. There were only two awards for investment performance with LGIM Real Assets securing top spot for both.

Bill Hughes, Head of LGIM Real Assets:
"These awards are a reflection of a great team effort all round and a fantastic accolade for the whole Real Assets platform."
