MLC funds ‘highly recommended’
Research and ratings house, Lonsec has maintained a “highly recommended” rating for MLC Inflation Plus, MLC Horizon 2-7 and MLC Index Plus portfolios.
Lonsec said it had recognised MLC’s long heritage in multi-asset investing, a highly regarded capital market research team, robust asset allocation processes and the company’s strong support in manager research, investment risk and derivatives capabilities.
MLC’s chief investment officer, Jonathan Armitage, said that Lonsec’s highest ratings would help further support investors’ trust.
“To have such strong endorsement across our outcome-orientated MLC Inflation Plus, traditional MLC Horizon 2-7 suite and MLC Index Plus portfolios shows the strength of our investment team and process,” he said.
“We’re extremely pleased to have retained Lonsec’s highest rating across our suite of multi-asset portfolios.”
