Asgard adds SGH Australian equities fund
The Asgard investment platform will offer SG Hiscock's Australian equities fund - SGH ICE - to its users after the fund received ‘Highly Recommended' rating from research house Lonsec earlier this year.
The fund, which also won the Australian equities (Small cap) category at the Money Management/Lonsec Fund Manager of the Year Awards in May, is distributed by Equity Trustees and has $200 million in funds under management.
SGH portfolio manager Callum Burns said being added to Asgard reflected interest in funds that invested out the ASX100 with ICE investing in mid-to-small cap industrial franchise companies listed on the ASX.
"We believe that the fund is well placed to perform in a variety of market conditions and offers a unique way to gain exposure to a truly diverse portfolio of quality companies with growing franchises," Burns said.
