Novare Investments, the independent multi-manger, was recently voted the Best Multi-Manager Fund Provider in South Africa at the Global Fund Awards 2015 in London.

The Global Fund Awards is an international awards program, sponsored by Barclay Hedge and the Isle of Man Fund Association that recognises fund performance and excellence in global financial services. 

The awards honour funds, funds of funds, hedge funds, and funds of hedge funds, as well as service providers working behind the scenes to manage and advise on various aspects of the funds industry.

The organisers of the awards said Novare had amassed a wealth of investment knowledge in Africa. The group’s experience, local knowledge and network mean that Novare is widely respected as an indispensible business partner for those looking to invest in Africa.

“We have been impressed with Novare’s ability to adapt and grow investment opportunities in the region. Reliability, consistency and sustainability are integral to Novare’s approach to business, and their first rate performance is reflected in the number of long-term clients they retain,” said Corporate Livewire.

Eugene Visagie, head of hedge fund investments at Novare Investments said the group was appreciative of the recognition of its multi-management capabilities.

“Our goal is to be recognised as the multi-manager fund provider of choice. We follow a focused, specialist approach to investment management with an innovative research framework incorporating traditional and alternative asset classes into our unique product offering.

“Our approach and philosophy combine to provide clients with superior multi-manager products that are based on risk cognisant investment performance, exceptional service delivery and ethically sound and sustainable investment decisions,” said Visagie.
