Zenith secures new mandates
Ratings house Zenith Investment Partners has been added to the research panel of Melbourne-based financial advisory group, RetireCare Personal Wealth Management.
Zenith announced the mandate today, along with the fact it had been appointed by Adelaide-based People's Choice Credit Union as a primary research provider.
Commenting on the appointments, Zenith national sales manager John Nicoll said many dealer groups were reassessing their service relationships.
"The value of good portfolio construction is particularly important during volatile equity markets," he said.
