After our first three wildly successful years, IDD is happy to announce it is now accepting nominees for its fourth annual 40 Under 40 issue.
Our 40 Under 40 effort is a spin-out from our prestigious annual Deals of the Year awards, recognizing the top 40 up-and-coming investment bankers, aged 40 and under. Were asking firms to submit nominations by Oct. 30.
To be clear, the 40 Under 40 is not a ranking, but rather a listing of bankers we view as talented team players.
Part of the aim is to build on the Deals of the Year concept of pinpointing a transaction -- in this case, naming an individual -- in order to highlight the talent of the team working in his/her respective product area. The summaries wont be long, but they will go far in terms of speaking to each firms commitment to reputation and responsible capital raising. And with 40 slots up for grabs, IDD can bring a wider variety of talent to the forefront than can be done with our Deals of the Year program.
The requirements are fairly straightforward: All nominees must be 40 years or under as of Oct. 30, 2009, and have shown a capacity for innovation and leadership while working within the team concept that is so prevalent on Wall Street. We seek nominations from across global offices and are open to each product line found in the investment banking industry.
Please fill out the nomination form and submit it by Dec. 20, 2009. If you have backup documentation that youd prefer to mail, please send it to my attention at:
IDD
1 State Street Plaza, 26th floor
New York, NY 10004
Finally, please keep in mind that all nominations in all categories will ultimately be determined by IDDs editors and reporters, who are committed to complete coverage of investment banking news each and every day. I can assure you that our selections will be made with careful consideration and will reflect the same high standards of our Deals of the Year awards.
