Victoria’s entries stood out for the clarity of her work in what is still a relatively new field. One judge’s endorsement summed up her qualities: Punchy and informative, taking often very complex and unfamiliar topics but putting across just the right level of technical detail, in a plain English way, is evident throughout her work. This was coupled with some genuine scoops exploring the regulatory challenges in FinTech, prompting another judge to comment The tone is serious yet digestible, striking a balance between finance-speak and readability—a win for both industry insiders and those who just like a bit of regulatory drama.
