Planners recognise agribusiness excellence
FEA Plantations Project has been voted the winner of the first AAG MIS Project of the Year Award.
Financial planners were asked to vote on five finalists selected by AAG researchers. FEA attracted 42 per cent of the votes cast for the five projects.
AAG research director Tim Lee said all five finalists had been awarded more than four stars by the researcher.
“It’s great to see the investment managers recognised for their achievements,” Lee said.
“The award was chosen by the financial advisers and it’s this group who makes the recommendation to clients and understands the industry.”
The other finalists were Gunns Plantations Woodlot Project, ITC Diversified Forestry Project, Heathcote Ridge Vineyard Project and Macquarie Almond Investment — Late Growers.
FEA general manager of sales and marketing Kristen McPhail said the award was an honour because it was selected by the planning industry.
“It’s a tribute to the dedication and hard work of our FEA team nationally and we are proud of the result,” McPhail said.
Lee said the award was created to recognise outstanding investment schemes in the agribusiness sector.
While there are many awards for fund managers in other investment sectors, this is the first for the agribusiness segment.
