The Champs 2015, Part 2 AFTAs and Waters Rankings
45 awards were handed out between these two programs.
The Waters Rankings and American Financial Technology Awards (AFTAs) honor the very best in the industry every year. The Waters Rankings are voted on exclusively by Waters' readers, and voting is limited to end-users. Winners of Waters Rankings have outdone themselves in garnering customer approval as being the top vendors.
The AFTAs are awarded every December to honor the best projects and initiatives undertaken by end-users, top IT teams, and CIO or CTOs on the sell side and buy side. The judging panel consists of the winners' peers and Waters' senior editorial members. Unlike our other awards programs, AFTAs winners are not announced until the awards ceremony, adding to the anticipation and excitement.
You can find Part 1 (The Buy-Side Technology and Sell-Side Technology Awards) here.
