A review of the 2026 awards

A review of the 2026 awards

The winners of the 2026 Investment Life & Pensions Moneyfacts Awards were announced 1 October 2026 in an exciting ceremony at the London Hilton on Park Lane.
On this page you'll be able to explore the event, looking at pictures from the ceremony and viewing the winners, highly commended and commended brands for each award.

Lee Tillcock, Editor of Investment Life & Pensions Moneyfacts, said:

“During the previous 12 months the economy has once again been tested by ongoing cost of living demands as well as geopolitical unrest, creating pressure on consumers, advisers and providers. Governmental leadership changes and the upcoming Autumn Budget create a further level of uncertainty, so 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 critical.

 

“We were hugely impressed with the level of commitment shown and the upbeat comments given by service providers and brokers. There is little doubt that the levels of choice and willingness to find real financial solutions continue to improve and see huge demand as we move into 2027.”
