InvestmentNews senior reporter Mark Schoeff Jr. has won a 2022 Eppy Award in the category of best news/political blog for his “D.C. INsider” series. The award, from Editor & Publisher, which has covered the publishing industry for 121 years, recognizes excellence in journalism.

“This is a well-deserved win for Mark and long overdue,” said Paul Curcio, editor-in-chief of InvestmentNews. “It speaks to his insight and expertise in more than a decade of covering the complex world of regulatory and legislative news that affects the business of financial advice.”

In an example of his precise reporting, Schoeff noted that he joined IN “on April 28, 2010, the day that what became the Dodd-Frank Act was introduced in the Senate Banking Committee.”

Runners-up for Eppy Awards this year included IN Technology Editor Ryan Neal for best use of social media/crowd sourcing and IN Contributing Editor Mary Beth Franklin — a 2021 Eppy Award winner — for best business/finance blog.

In September, InvestmentNews senior columnist Jeff Benjamin won a 2022 Eddie Award from Folio magazine for his series of articles about unusual market niches that financial adviser have carved out.
