2 About Headlinemoney.co.uk Headlinemoney is the essential digital data service for money media professionals. Its comprehensive online platform is used by thousands of financial journalists and media relations professionals looking for news, contacts and comment. The platform has been voted the financial services industry s favourite website. The Headlinemoney media awards Headlinemoney brings together people who work in financial services media. Our annual awards programme, launched in 2002, reinforces the concept even further. The mantra for the awards is simple: to recognise and celebrate the best journalists, media outlets and PR professionals covering, or working in, the financial services industry. The awards are highly coveted because winners are nominated, judged and ultimately decided by their peers. The Daily Telegraph has described the awards as the Oscars for financial journalism. In 2014 the Guardian s money editor, Patrick Collinson (above), said he was humbled to win the overall journalist of the year award. To see how highly senior members of the money media (journalists and PRs) regard the awards follow this video link to the 2014 ceremony. 2
