NEWS AND EVENTS 26 May 2023

Paulo Câmara, Partner at SÉRVULO, was elected Personality of the Year at the 2023 Best Funds Awards, presented by the Portuguese Association of Investment Funds, Pensions, and Assets (APFIPP).

The award was jointly presented this Thursday to three personalities: Jorge Bravo (Nova IMS Lisbon University), Miguel Leónidas Rocha (Deloitte), and Paulo Câmara (Sérvulo & Associados). As highlighted by APFIPP President João Pratas, "in this edition, not only the contribution made in 2022 was taken into account, but also the entire history of collaboration with APFIPP, as well as the support always provided to its Associates and to the Asset Management and Pension Funds market, by the three distinguished Personalities."

"It is a great honor and a tremendous privilege for me to have received this important award, which I consider equally directed at the excellent team of Sérvulo & Associados. The fact that it is awarded by APFIPP - an association with a very high degree of professionalism, seriousness, and impact on the financial system - makes this distinction even more special," highlights Paulo Câmara.
