Prêmio Outliers InfoMoney 2026: entenda como será a votação

Episode Overview

• This episode outlines the structure and timeline for the second edition of the "Outliers InfoMoney" awards, often referred to as the "Oscars of Assets" in Brazil, which honors excellence in the investment fund market.
• The discussion details the voting process, distinguishing between categories open to the general public and those reserved for industry peers, covering 16 distinct categories such as Fixed Income, Multimarket, and Equities.
• Listeners are guided through the strict methodology used to select nominees and provided with specific instructions on how fund managers can exercise their institutional votes before the January 20th deadline.

Key Concepts

• Bifurcated Voting Structure: The awards utilize a two-pronged approach to determine winners. The "Popular Vote" allows the general investing public to select the "Best Manager," ensuring market sentiment is represented. Conversely, technical categories rely on a peer-review system where fund managers vote for one another, ensuring industry expertise drives the selection of technical awards.
• Curated Nomination Methodology: The nominees (the "Outliers") were not selected at random but were determined by a Curator Council. This body applied a specific methodology and criteria across different segments, validated by a technical council and industry experts from organizations like Anbima and ABVCAP, to ensure the credibility of the candidates.
• Institutional Voting Security: To maintain the integrity of the peer-to-peer voting process (for categories like Best Manager 2025, Alternative, and International), the system uses a "parameterized unique link." This link is sent only to the institutional email of eligible managers listed in the Anbima ranking, allowing for exactly one vote per institution to prevent ballot stuffing.
