Additionally, the Paradice Australian Mid Cap Fund has recently been added to the BT and Asgard platforms.
Discussing the product's inclusion on the platforms and Zenith’s rating, Paradice National Sales Manager, Jude Fernandez, said “The fund now sits alongside the Paradice Global Mid Small Cap Fund as the firm’s second offering to retail investors. Paradice has a proven record of providing strong returns for our institutional investors over many years and we are pleased to now offer these strategies to the broader market. The business continues to invest in its retail distribution area by adding resources and selectively bringing strategies to market that we believe can assist investors in meeting their objectives.”
