The News from Financial Narrative: Awards, Marketers’ Research & ESG Discussions

Whether you’ve returned to the office to finally have face-to-face meetings with your team or are working remotely in the countryside, ceiling fans turning circles to create a breeze, Summer 2022 is now in full swing. Financial Narrative is feeling the heat, too, as we analyze the result of our Salary Survey and gear up for our 3rd annual Financial Marketers’ Index survey in collaboration with Opinium.

Here are a few more updates from the Financial Narrative community:
AWARDS
Behind every company’s success story is often a team of dedicated people working hard to get the job done. These people deserve to be recognized. Nominate financial marketing and communications superstars (aka your colleague, yourself, boss, or team members) for the 2022 Financial Narrative Awards in two categories – Financial Marketing Leadership Award and Financial Marketing Rising Stars Award – by August 19, 2022.
FINANCIAL MARKETERS’ RESEARCH
Once again, we have partnered with strategic insight agency, Opinium, to put the voices of senior financial marketers at the forefront of a rapidly evolving landscape. Please share your insights regarding the issues affecting financial marketeers in this short survey. Participating in the survey will give you first access to the 2023 Financial Marketers’ Index and a chance to win an iPad!
