Frontier Capital Launches Onshore Multi Asset Class Fund
London, UK
2 March 2009
Frontier Capital Management LLP (“Frontier”), a specialist multi-asset investment company, today confirms the launch of the IFDS Frontier MAP Balanced Fund (“the Fund”) following approval by the FSA.
The investment strategy is consistent with Frontier’s successful offshore Multi Asset Platform (“MAP”) Funds that incorporate eight asset classes with a low cost investment methodology. The Fund is a Non UCITS Retail Scheme which is available to a broad range of investor profiles.
In addition to eligibility for ISAs and onshore bonds, the new structure will have the advantages of daily dealing; reduced investment minimums of £1,000 and capital gains tax treatment for UK investors. The Fund opens for subscription today 2 March 2009, with proceeds to be invested on 16th March.
The move onshore will allow more IFAs, family offices and UK investors to take advantage of Frontier’s unique investment approach that provides investors with access to the returns of both traditional and alternative global asset classes with a single investment.
The Fund is based closely on the investment approach of the existing MAP Funds and will provide diversification within and across eight asset classes: global equities, global fixed income, emerging equities, emerging fixed income, real estate, commodities, hedge funds, and managed futures.
The launch comes in response to strong demand from UK based intermediaries and wealth managers.
