Friday, March 24, 2017 Vanguard, Nuveen, and Morgan Stanley Win Big in Gotham Last night Capital Group, Fidelity, Morgan Stanley [profile], Nuveen (formerly TIAA), OppenheimerFunds, Pimco, T. Rowe Price, and Vanguard all won big at an industry awards show in New York City.
Bob Jenkins, global head of research at Thomson Reuters Wealth Management/Lipper, presented the awards at the ceremony. Charles Schwab, Eaton Vance, Loomis Sayles, Pimco, and Virtus sponsored the event. InvestmentNews and the Wall Street Journal partnered with Thomson Reuters Lippers on the event, and Institutional Investor was the production partner. As in past years, the High Water Women charity was featured at the awards dinner. Janice Abert, partner in the asset management practice at DHR International and board member at High Water Women, spoke to the attending fundsters and rallied them to donate during the event via text to support the charity's 2017 backpack drive. Their goal this is to raise $500,000 to put together 25,000 backpacks full of school supplies, to help schoolchildren in need. The dinner also featured a "walk-up music contest." Each time a winner was brought to the stage, a different song played, and fundsters in the audience tweeted their guesses as to who sang that song. Fundsters at the winning table, number 19, each took home $100 Amazon gift cards. About 200 fundsters attended the dinner, and about 160 came to the Lipper Alpha Forum at the nearby Ascent Lounge.
