In order to be recognized, each honoree had to demonstrate continued success and accomplishments over the last 24 months. Qualitative characteristics such as leadership in and outside of the office within charitable organizations had also been considered.

Honorees represent commercial banking, investment banking, asset/investment management, lending, and private equity sectors as well as service executives across the legal, accounting and insurance sectors.

 

The LA Times B2B Publishing 2023 Visionaries honor was given in March 2023 and covers the year 2023. KAR has not paid fees to the award sponsor to obtain the award and does not anticipate that it will pay fees to re-license the award.
