BNP AM Australia said the delegated investment manager of the trust would be Melbourne-based JCP Investment Partners, which is a specialist wholesale Australian-focused equities manager.
David Grybas, BNP AM Australia chief executive, said the partnership was expected to provide investors with access to an Australian equity strategy that has been previously not been available to retail investors.
