Debtwire European Direct Lending Awards: The Debtwire European Direct Lending Awards were for the full year 2023. Managers were asked to provide their submissions with quantitative data on their platform through December 31, 2023. The regional awards were selected through analysis of the rankings to determine the most prolific managers in their respective regions, whilst the People’s Choice awards included a shortlist drawn up from the rankings. These shortlisted candidates were then invited to provide their submissions to be decided upon by our expert panel of judges.
