London — GQG Partners LLC has won the “Global Equity” category at the 2024 Investment Week Fund Manager of the Year Awards, presented at the Awards ceremony on 20 June 2024. 

The award honours managers whom Investment Week believes are at the top of their game. These managers have demonstrated consistently strong performance for investors, and the judging panel believes they have the potential to continue to outperform in the future. 

Finalists are determined by Morningstar’s quantitative research methodology that assess investment rankings over the past three years. Winners are then determined through a qualitative process by a panel of 50 selectors that judge categories in their specialist areas of interest. 

Dan Lee, Director, Head of Wholesale (UK and Ireland), said the award showcases the group’s  performance-orientated, investment-led culture. 

 “We believe this award highlights GQG Partners LLC’s focus on delivering superior performance for both clients and investors.  We are honoured for GQG Partners LLC to receive this award.”

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

PAST PERFORMANCE MAY NOT BE INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS. 

Funds must meet the following criteria to be considered: 

  • UK authorised and FCA-recognised with distributor status. 
  • £50m in size or above at 31 January 2024.  
  • Have a three-year track record at 31 January 2024 with the same managers/team.  
  • Must be aimed at retail/wholesale investors.   

A weighted score is given to percentile ranking within qualifying Investment Association sectors over each of the three discrete years to 31 January 2024. These are sectors which they can map to their Fund Manager of the Year categories. There is a 20% weighting to the percentile ranking during the 12 months to 31 January 2022, 30% to 31 January 2023, and 40% to the period to 31 January 2024. In addition, a 10% weighting is given to a fund’s Sortino ratio to give an indication of relative risk. This creates a combined score and the top scoring managers are then included in the shortlists for the awards. The shortlist for the Group of the Year category was based on the number of shortlisted funds in the category lists. Managers of the shortlisted funds are then invited to respond to an online questionnaire which asks further in-depth questions about the portfolio and contributing factors to performance over the period to help the judges in their deliberations. The panel of highly experienced selectors drawn from across the industry then judged each category in their area of expertise during their judging sessions in May.
