On Tuesday night at the Investment Management Education Alliance's (IMEA's) 23rd annual STAR Awards celebration, Matthews Asia won ten awards, more than any other firm and up from three last year. The STAR Awards celebration was held at the Mid-America in Chicago.

361 Capital won three 2019 STAR Awards, including the 2019 Community Investment Award, in part thanks to the team spearheading the 9/11 Heroes Run in Denver to benefit the Travis Manion Foundation.

JPMAM won seven STAR awards this time around. Ameriprise's Columbia Threadneedle, Hennessy, TIAA's Nuveen, Principal, and T. Rowe Price won five awards each. Aberdeen Standard, Hartford, Invesco, Janus Henderson, MFS, Nationwide, and Saturna won three awards each. And BMO, Franklin Templeton, John Hancock, Legg Mason, Lincoln Financial, and U.S. Global Investors won two awards each.

Fund firms that each won a single STAR Award this week included: AMG, Ariel, Brandes, Raymond James' Carillon Tower, Charles Schwab, Dodge & Cox, Federated, FS, FundX, Waddell & Reed's Ivy, Macquarie, Royce, and William Blair.
