MI Select Managers Funds


Our MI Select Managers funds hold multiple segregated mandates under one fund structure with the aim of improving operational and cost efficiency.

What are the MI Select Managers Funds?

Our five MI Select Managers funds have been a popular addition to our Managed Portfolio Service (MPS) since they launched in 2018 (Alternatives launched in 2022) but were not previously offered to external distributors.

We have extended the range to include two new share classes, making it available directly to retail clients, advisers and professional investors using a manager-of-managers approach.

The funds have a number of underlying mandates managed by third-party investment managers, which have been chosen by our in-house research team based on both qualitative and quantitative characteristics.

The range provides access to five portfolios across asset classes:

Invests in UK-focused strategies, with the aim of providing long-term capital growth and income.

Invests in UK-focused strategies producing a sustainable dividend yield. The aim is to provide income along with the opportunity for capital growth.

Invests primarily in US-focused strategies. The aim is to provide long-term capital growth and income.

Invests in debt instruments issued by governments, companies and other large organisations. The aim is to provide income along with the opportunity for capital growth.

Can invest in a diversified, global basket of alternative assets, from commodities and real estate through to private equity and absolute return strategies. The aim is to provide a positive return on a rolling five-year basis.

The funds can be used within third-party portfolios/Centralised Investment Propositions, or as a single asset strategy within a client portfolio.

The funds are managed by RBC Brewin Dolphin with Apex FundRock Ltd (formerly Maitland) operating as Authorised Corporate Director (ACD) and fund administrator.
