Standard & Poor’s Fund Services’ (S&P’s) ratings on two funds managed by Aviva Investors have been unaffected by the announcement that Michael Brown has left the firm.

Brown was the deputy portfolio manager of Aviva Investors’ Professional High Growth Shares Fund and the deputy portfolio manager of its Professional Listed Property Fund.

The High Growth Shares Fund will continue to be headed up by portfolio manager Richard Dixon, who will be supported by Richard Colquhoun as deputy portfolio manager. Brett McNeil, portfolio manager of the Listed Property Fund will continue to manage the strategy and will be supported by Colquhoun as deputy portfolio manager.

S&P added that it was comfortable with the current management of the funds but would continue to monitor any further changes at the firm.
