Diversified financial services firm, Evans & Partners claims its international equities team has reached a milestone — funds under management (FUM) approaching $1 billion.
It claimed the milestone, achieved over a five-year period, had served to place it firmly in the top decile of long-only international asset managers on a one, three and five year basis.
It said the international equities team was established in May 2011, and now manages client assets approaching $1 billion, including for some of Australia’s most sophisticated investors and independent financial advisory groups.
It said the investment team had recently been expanded, with James Hannam and Will Dowd joining established members, Stephen Arnold and Nick Cregan.
Commenting on the milestone, head of international equities, Stephen Arnold, said it had been achieved by following a clearly articulated and highly disciplined investment approach.
Evans & Partners was established in November 2007 by David Evans. The company, which is entirely owned by its staff, had steadily grown to become a full service wealth management, institutional broking, asset management and capital markets operation with over 130 employees.
