The Business Journalist of the Year Awards, organized by the World Leadership Forum, are the only awards for business writers that are open to journalists of all nationalities, and the only awards to cover the entire spectrum of business and financial reporting. According to the Independent, the Business Journalist of the Year Awards are the "Oscars of the business-journalism world."
