Domus Semo Sancus (DSS), was today announced the winner of two 2017 ACQ5 Global Awards, with it winning the 2017 “International – Company of the Year (FinTech)” award and its Chairman  & CEO, E. Jay Saunders picking up the “International – Game Changer of the Year” award.

The ACQ5 Global Awards, currently in its 12th year, honors “…the leading deal teams, firms, and professionals whose activities set the standard.” According to Jake Robson, Group Editor of The ACQ5, “Experts whose intimate knowledge and expertise in the corporate, cultural, financial and legal arenas are redefining our industry. The 2017 ACQ5 Global Award winners represent the best of breed in all industry sectors and have earned these honours by standing out in a group of very impressive finalists.”

Nominees were voted for by over 83,000 industry professionals, who rated each nominee from 1 – 5 on criteria such as experience, value for money, and responsiveness.

Only nominees who received an average 4-star rating or above were shortlisted for an award.

Commenting on DSS winning the awards, Saunders stated, “One of our goals for 2017 was to make our brands more well known. While we’re confident that we’re building best-in-class products, that means nothing if we’re not getting the word out. We’re proud and honored to have won these ACQ5 Global Awards, as it confirms to us that the DSS brand profile is increasing internationally and that industry professionals are starting to take notice of our products and services.”
