Over the one year to 31 May, 2020, the Managed Volatility Equities fund, which was the Australian Equities Large Cap award winner, returned 1.89% according to FE Analytics.

The other two nominees in the Australian Equities Large Cap award were Platypus Australian Equities and Bennelong Australian Equities, which returned 8.65% and 8.45%, respectively.

AllianceBernstein’s Concentrated Australian Equities fund was also in the sector, which had lost -9.42%.

In FE Analytics, there are seven AllianceBernstein funds in total, with the rest in the global equities, fixed interest global bond and alternative sectors.

Dynamic Global Fixed Income returned 1.81% compared to the fixed interest global bond sector, within the Australian Core Strategies universe, average return of 4.01%
