Folkestone’s funds added to CFS FirstWrap
The Folkestone Maxim A-REIT Securities Fund has been added to Colonial First State FirstWrap.
The fund aimed to offer investors a high conviction actively managed investment strategy by delivering a concentrated portfolio of ASX listed real estate securities.

Folkestone’ head of funds management, Adrian Harrington said: “We are delighted by the growing adviser demand for the fund.

“We also have an SMA with Mason Stevens and are running MDAs for a financial advisory group and a number of Family Office.”
