BSW Business Journalism Awards
We are convinced that well-founded reporting and media coverage of business issues make a significant contribution to financial and economic literacy. With the BSW Business Journalism Awards, we recognise excellent journalism that deals with topics from the world of business and finance.
Together with Börse Frankfurt, Boerse Stuttgart Group and gettex exchange the BSW presents the BSW Business Journalism Awards every year – for the 18th time in 2025.
