The FSA Awards luncheon was held yesterday at the Tower Club in Singapore, where the Platinum and Gold winners accepted their respective fund awards.
The highlights included multiple award winners Fidelity, Schroders and First State.
The winners were selected through both quantitative and qualitative methods. FE Advisory used its Crown Rating methodology to assess funds based on alpha, volatility and consistency and create a shortlist for 15 asset classes.
The shortlist was given to an independent panel of professionals from Asia’s fund selector community in Hong Kong. Each judge selected the funds they thought would outperform in the next 12 months. Their aggregated choices determined the Platinum and Gold winners.
