The results are based on a combination of face-to-face and telephonic interviews with 3500 adults and 400 business people. Here are the results from the financial categories:
Banking Awards
First National Bank claimed the top spot for Retail Banks in the business-to-consumer national category.

Well done to ABSA and Standard Bank who were placed second and third respectively in this category.
Impressively, the same three banks featured in the business-to-business category, with Standard Bank coming in first place, followed by FNB and then ABSA. So although South Africans love to hate banks, these three are obviously out-performing their competitors and are making a concerted effort to retain and satisfy their customers.
Insurance Awards
The array of insurance companies receiving awards was definitely larger than in the banking industry; with Old Mutual and Hollard, being the only two that featured more than once, so hats off to them both for their consistently high ratings.
In the business-to-consumer section the awards for long-term insurance went to Old Mutual, followed by Metropolitan Life and then Hollard; and in the business-to-business section the winner was Discovery Life, with Liberty in second place and Old Mutual in third.
For short-term insurance in the business-to-consumer category, Outsurance came out tops, followed by AA Insurance and Hollard; and in the business-to-business category Santam came in first, Mutual and Federal was second and Zurich Insurance claimed third place.
Medical Aid Awards
Congratulations to Discovery Health for winning first prize in the business-to-business Medical Aid awards. The runners up were Momentum and Fed Health.
For the Grand Prix categories of consumers' top brands, Coca-Cola won the Overall favourite brand award and Nelson Mandela won the South African personality award.
Pick ‘n Pay also did extremely well, winning two out of the four awards for the Company doing the most to uplift community and the Company that has done the most to promote "Green".
