Australia’s top female portfolio managers to be recognised
At the same time as moving to a whole of market approach to its Fund Manager of the Year awards, Money Management is breaking new ground by recognising Australia’s top female investment funds portfolio managers.
In doing so, Money Management has named the following women as finalists for the award to be announced on 21 May at Sydney’s Four Seasons Hotel.
Bianca Ogden – Platinum Asset Management
Kate Howitt – Fidelity International
Qiao Ma – Cooper Investors
Mary Manning – Ellerston Capital
Julia Forrest – Pendal Group
The specific Money Management Female Portfolio Manager of the Year Award has been initiated in recognition of the fact that while there exists a growing number of women in senior positions within the financial services industry, they remain under-represented with respect to portfolio management.
Money Management announced last month that after more than 30 years it was adopting a whole of market approach to its annual Fund Manager of the Year Awards utilising common quantitative data generated by Fe fundinfo and the qualitative experience of research partners Lonsec, Mercer and SQM and industry partner, IOOF.
