Before the dinner, Euromoney conducted a charity tombstone auction on behalf of Little Rock School, an educational institution in the Kibera slum in Nairobi. The sum raised was £540,000, thanks to some enormously generous contributions from the banks attending the dinner on the night. A full list of donors will be published tomorrow and in forthcoming Euromoney publications.
Euromoney is pleased to announce a partnership with AbleChildAfrica to support building a new school for the children of Kibera. Money raised will facilitate the purchase of land and development and construction of a new centre that will cater through education and health care for children suffering from disabilities and health issues.

Euromoney would like to thank everyone who contributed to this worthy cause.
ABOUT EUROMONEY AWARDS FOR EXCELLENCE
Since 1992 Euromoney, the world’s leading financial markets magazine, has singled out the outstanding institutions in finance.
Over the years, the Awards for Excellence have evolved with the markets they cover. They now incorporate 20 global awards for banking and capital markets; and awards for the best banks and securities houses in 100 countries around the world.
All the awards have one central theme – they recognise institutions and individuals that demonstrate leadership, innovation, and momentum in the markets in which they excel.
