A review of the 2023 awards

A review of the 2023 awards

The winners of the 2023 Business Moneyfacts Awards were announced on 20 April 2023 in an exciting return to Evolution London. A packed out audience of over 800 guests enjoyed spectacular food, entertainment and production, with thanks to all of our event sponsors.

On this page you'll be able to explore the event, viewing the winners, highly commended and commended brands for each award as well as highlights and images of the event.

Lee Tillcock, Editor of Business Moneyfacts, said:

"The business finance sector has worked tirelessly to support growth during the past 12 months, firstly beating COVID uncertainty and then by combatting the effects of labour shortages and supply bottlenecks to secure working capital and help realise growth plans. The challenges that faced us, while different, remained considerable, but the brokers and lenders in the commercial finance sector once again provided the support so clearly displayed during the past year. The finalists and eventual winners at this year’s awards should be rightly proud of their achievements and have offered a range of products and services that have best supported the sector, at a time when its success and growth remain so vital.”
