A shortlist is then drawn up in each category, based on the overall number of nominations with a weighting applied to the source of those nominations. More emphasis is placed on nominations received from outside of the nominated company. The number of nominations accepted from within a nominated company is capped at 20. Those businesses/individuals which make the shortlist in each category will be contacted and asked to submit a short testimonial based on the following criteria: 1. What are the key achievements your firm has delivered in the last 12 months? Please pay particular attention to the context of your category. We expect to see evidence of exceptional achievements prior to the pandemic but also a demonstration of how you have gone the extra mile to support your business partners and customers through the Covid disruption. Please also think about any positive contributions your business has made to the prosperity of the wider equity release market in the last 12 months beyond your own business performance. #ERAWARDS CRITERIA AND METHODOLOGY 2. Please indicate your successful business performance over the last 12 months (Measured in transaction volumes and/or profit versus 2019) alongside any performance indicators relevant to your category-such as increase in positive feedback, referrals, or net promoter scores (whatever is appropriate) 3. Tell us why you should win the award. An industry panel will then gather to discuss the shortlist and use both their market knowledge and these testimonials to determine the winners. The judges are handpicked for their experience and knowledge of the market and are a representative sample of providers, distributors and supporting services who can give a reasoned and balanced view on each of the candidates on the shortlists. Where there is a business conflict of interest with one of the companies on a shortlist, this judge is precluded from casting a vote in this category. Please note that none of the judges are aware of the result of any category before the awards presentation. #ERAWARDS OUR FINALISTS DISTRIBUTOR BEST FINANCIAL ADVISER: 5 OR FEWER ADVISERS BEST FINANCIAL ADVISER: 6-19 ADVISERS Fluent Lifetime Laterliving now!

James Acaster 00:45 Yeah, I thought that was the drill. Yeah, but I've never been so happy to be wrong. I love it. A hundred episodes — same age as the great Benito! One hundred! People don't know that about– Ed Gamble 00:55 The 100 year old Great Benito, tiny little old man.

James Acaster 00:22 Oh, I love it! Ed Gamble 00:23 Yeah, we're happy with that? James Acaster 00:25 How've you never done that before? Ed Gamble 00:26 I dunno man. James Acaster 00:27 We've never talked about snap, crackle and pop, really. Ed Gamble 00:30 I was thinking of going with, like, turning the milk fun-flavoured or something. But it didn't quite work. James Acaster 00:36 No, no, but y'know, keep that in the back pocket for another episode — there'll be plenty more. Ed Gamble 00:39 Oh yeah. James Acaster 00:40 And this week's guest is music-related so listening for the pop. Actually, that's quite clever. Ed Gamble 00:45 Very, very good indeed. James Acaster 00:47 Quite clever. Ed Gamble 00:48 James, before we reveal our special guest, perhaps you should tell the listener what the bloomin' 'ell we're doing here. © Plosive Limited 2021 - 1 - Off Menu – Ep 101: Julie Adenuga James Acaster 00:54 This is the Off Menu podcast.
