MAN GROUP LTD
The accolade was awarded to the fund for maintaining a five-star 'Exceptional' rating from Tilney Bestinvest over five consecutive years, and for having consistency in its fund management team, led by Stephen Harker. The £1.35bn1 fund managed by the GLG Japan CoreAlpha team is one of only nine funds to be recognised by the firm for its outstanding and consistent performance.
In addition to statistical analysis of performance, Tilney Bestinvest also monitors the performance of fund managers throughout their careers to determine whether the success of the fund is down to luck or skill.
Stephen Harker said: "We are delighted to receive this special achievement award from such a well- respected business such as Tilney Bestinvest, with whom we have a long standing relationship. This award recognises our disciplined and patient approach as value investors."
Lee Dooley, Managing Director at Tilney Bestinvest, said: "Research is at the centre of everything we do and our team of analysts is continually identifying, monitoring and reviewing investment funds across all major asset classes. Very few funds achieve our highest rating of five-stars and the Outstanding Achievement Awards recognise those that have done so continuously for a number of years."
