Alpha adds JHI fund to portfolio
The Janus Henderson Global fixed Interest Return Fund has been added to the global fixed interest portfolio of multi-manager, Alpha Fund Managers.
The fund, which was launched in 2014, is an actively managed global fixed interest fund which invests across the full spectrum of fixed interest asset classes, markets and instruments.
The duration of the fund, which manages in excess of $101 billion of fixed interest assets on behalf of both institutional and retail investors, ranged between zero to six years, the firm said.
As at 30 November, it delivered investors 6.9 per cent per annum and 5.1 per cent per annum, over one and three years’ net of fees, respectively.
Alpha Fund Manager’s portfolio manager, Julien Brodie said: “We selected the Janus Henderson Global Fixed Interest Total return Fund because of the quality and insight of the investment team, defensive characteristics and importantly its ability to navigate market rotations and deliver consistent outperformance across time.”
The fund is also available on platforms including ANZ Grow Wrap, BT Wrap, OneAnswer AND Netwealth.
