Holistically designed RI managed accounts

Our customised Responsible Investment (RI) Portfolios combine a focus on RI principles with our strengths in manager selection and asset allocation. These portfolios are designed to reduce exposure to a range of harmful industries while focusing on selecting funds which demonstrate a robust approach to assessing and incorporating responsible investment principles. Where possible, these portfolios invest in managed funds which have a Zenith Responsible Investment classification of either ‘Integrated’, ‘Thematic’ or ‘Impact’, and are constructed with no targeted fee budgets.

Zenith RI Portfolios

Our team

Leading the Portfolio Solutions team for our managed accounts is highly experienced investment professional Steven Tang. He oversees customised RI portfolio implementation , with input from the Group’s Responsible Investment Committee (RIC). The RIC is made up of experienced professionals from across our Research, Consulting and Legal teams and it provides support to  Steven in the ongoing management of the portfolios. Other key roles such as portfolio rebalancing and reporting are undertaken by members of our portfolio support, data and administration teams.  

Given the continued growth and scale of our managed accounts offering, we've established a dedicated Investment Risk and Governance function which is responsible for all activities related to managed account risk analysis and operations.  The focus of the team is:

  • monitoring risk: identifying potential areas to address at a Fund and portfolio level through our institutional grade risk reporting
  • portfolio maintenance: managing operational requirements including managed account implementation, PDS review and rebate administration, and
  • governance: satisfying platform regulatory requirements at initial portfolio launch and on an ongoing basis.

This function provides our clients with the peace of mind that portfolio risks are reviewed regularly, and governance and regulatory requirements are being monitored by a focused, experienced team, which ultimately delivers more efficient portfolio management to our clients.
