Munro Partners has won Best Australian Based Global Equity Manager at the 2024 Australian Fund Manager Awards.
The Australian Fund Manager Awards is in its 25th year. The awards celebrate excellence in funds management while making a meaningful impact through philanthropy.
Munro Partners founder and CIO, Nick Griffin says the award win acknowledges the team’s persistence in building high-performing funds that provide positive returns for its investors.
“Our philosophy is based on finding long-term winners by identifying sustainable growth trends that are under-appreciated, not well understood and mis-priced by the market. This gives us the foundation to find those few great structurally growing companies and build a portfolio of winning stocks, that generate strong fund returns over time.
“Our investment team has a proven track record of delivering strong returns for investors, thanks to the calibre and expertise of each of the members. They have all played an important role in building and managing these portfolios to be high performing funds,” he said.
The Munro Global Growth Fund returned 34 per cent net in the 2024 financial year.
Damien McIntyre, CEO of GSFM - the distributor of Munro funds in the Australian market -said this win highlights the strength and expertise of the Munro Partners team.
“The team has an unwavering conviction that finding tomorrow’s winners comes from understanding how and why the world is changing, and investing to benefit from this – and its investment track record bears this out,” said Mr McIntyre.
