Investment - Articles - Architas reaches £10 billion total assets milestone


 Architas today announces that it has reached a significant milestone in achieving £10 billion total assets. Inflows have continued to increase at a steady pace despite market volatility and a challenging trading environment.
 
 Hans Georgeson, managing director, Architas, says: “Architas performance is driven by a team of highly experienced investment managers and our proprietary quantitative analysis tool, MosaIQue by Architas®. We delivered 20 per cent growth in 2011 by channelling both of these to provide offerings for advisers that are simple to use and easy to explain for customers. RDR is here to stay and our 'RDR-ready' funds help advisers quickly match clients’ risk profiles to the most appropriate funds.”
 
 While MosaIQue by Architas® provides precision for quantitative analysis in screening funds, detailed qualitative research and over 1,000 fund manager meetings every year provide constant monitoring for every fund holding in Architas’ range of funds.
 
 Caspar Rock, chief investment officer, Architas, said: “We continue to be big investors in people and technology. Our investments team has deep experience across a broad range of asset classes. As a result, every fund is subject to the most rigorous quantitative and qualitative analysis.”
 
 AXA Wealth’s Elevate platform, which currently provides a loyalty offer that rewards customers who invest in the Architas fund range, has recently announced a growth in assets under management to £4 billion, up 14 per cent since the start of the year. Advisers can access Architas funds on Elevate and other platforms for solutions that suit any investing style.
 
 According to research conducted by Fundscape – the highly regarded UK fund industry research house – Architas ranked 5th for gross multi-manager sales in 2011.
