AMP Capital Investors takes Asian fund retail
AMP Capital Investors has announced that it will be providing retail investors with access to its AMP Capital Asian Equity Growth Fund.
Announcing the retail offering, AMP Capital Investors' head of Asian equities, Karma Wilson', said the move would allow retail investors to add a discrete Asian allocation to their portfolios.
“We believe Asia is positioned to become one of the most dominant economic regions in the world, with growth driven by industrialisation, increasing urbanisation and growing domestic demand,” Wilson said. “Investors looking to tap this potential realise international equity funds may not provide sufficient exposure.”
