Hungarian Banking Association Golden Beehive Award and the Certificate of Recognition

The Hungarian Banking Association created the Golden Beehive Award and the Golden Beehive Certificate of Recognition to start a tradition of acknowledging outstanding individual work that promotes the development and operations of the credit institutions sector. The first awards were distributed on April 20, 2012 at the Hungarian Banking Association’s Annual Assembly.
The Golden Beehive Award recognizes the outstanding, exemplary activities of employees engaged in bank advocacy activities or in the banking profession.
The Golden Beehive Certificate of Recognition acknowledges an outstanding career path or professional activity that resulted in one exceptional achievement in the banking sector or a related field.
The name of the award symbolizes diligence, organization, perseverance, tireless effort and contributions to society. The main motif of the award was inspired by the Zsolnay porcelain beehive ornaments, located on top of the headquarters of Magyar Királyi Postatakarékpénztár Rt. (the Hungarian Imperial Postal Savings Bank) on Hold Street.
