We are delighted to have been awarded South Africa’s Manager of the Year Award. The award is given to the fund management company that achieves top risk adjusted performance right across its range of unit trust funds. The performances are determined by the Plexcrown Fund Ratings system, over a five year period.
The award acknowledges long term, consistent performance across a wide range of investment options, within one company.
Mi-Plan placed in the top 3 Managers in the 2018 Raging Bull awards as well, highlighting the consistency of delivery of top, risk adjusted performance from our asset managers.
Mi-Plan’s philosophy to critically evaluate, identify and appoint asset managers who are best in their class underpins our ability to achieve industry beating risk adjusted returns for our clients.
We therefore acknowledge and share this award with Tony Bell, Rowan Williams-Short from Vunani Fund Managers and Guy Monson from Sarasin and Partners, as well as the skilled teams who back them up. Tony also netted the coveted Raging Bull award for the MiPlan IP Global Macro Fund in the individual fund awards, in the SA domiciled Global Multi-Asset Flexible category for risk adjusted performance over five years and was recognised as Best Performer based on straight performance over three years.
In a market dominated by hype, where investors and their advisers are often influenced by extensive advertising and marketing campaigns, we would like to thank our loyal supporters for showing their confidence by investing in Mi-Plan. In doing so you have gone against the market trend – by choosing a lesser known brand and basing your investment decisions on the critical evaluation of your investment options and fund manager – and not on populism and promotion.
Martin Hesse, content editor of Personal Finance, who hosted the awards, said: “Heartiest congratulations to Mi-Plan in a tough investment environment. It’s good to see the better-known, established industry players being challenged by smaller, younger companies. The competition is beneficial for investors, keeping costs in check and preventing anyone from resting on their laurels.”
