In 2014, the awards honoured a host of outstanding FDs and financial service providers, including Tim Score of semi-conductor and software design company ARM Holdings PLC, who picked up the prestigious FTSE 100 FD of the Year Award. Mark Hesketh, FD, UK and Europe of savings and investments firm Standard Life, won the Inspirational FD of the Year category and Andrew Langford of payment processing business, Global Payments, was presented with the Young FD of the Year Award.
