MLC has been awarded the highest rating – Œ5 Apples¹, by independent research house ChantWest for the 9th consecutive year. This rating assesses MLC¹s ability to construct quality multi-manager investment products.
MLC CIO Jonathan Armitage said, ³We are pleased to once again be awarded ChantWest¹s highest overall rating. It shows ongoing support for our range of multi-manager solutions including our retirement focused MLC Inflation Plus portfolios, and our dynamic investment philosophy and robust portfolio construction process that we have built over the past 25 years.
“Contributors to the solid rating include a strong, stable senior management and portfolio management team, extensive experience in managing multi-manager portfolios and high quality research resources.”
ChantWest identified the MLC flagship ŒHorizon 4 – Balanced¹ fund, specifically its return of 6.8% per annum for the 10 years to June 2014 (after investment fees and tax) as a key performer. They also highlighted the focus on the research and portfolio construction process undertaken by MLC¹s Head of Investments, Susan Gosling and her Capital Markets Research team as a major strength as well as the work done by the broader JANA Investment team.
