Investors Mutual Limited (IML) has been awarded the 2012 Smart Investor Blue Ribbon Fund Manager of the Year Award for Australian Large-Cap (large capitalisation equity index).

Sydney-based IML was set up in 1998 by Maltese-Australian Anton Tagliaferro as a specialist Australian equities fund manager. It has grown steadily since then and has more than $2.3 billion in funds under management. Investors Mutual has a conservative investment style with a long-term focus, and aims to deliver consistent returns for clients.

Mr Tagliaferro, IML investment director, said: “We are very pleased and proud to have won this award – this is the third industry award we have won in the Australian Equities category in 2012 and we would like to thank our many clients for their continued support and faith in the IML philosophy in these challenging times for investors.

He added: “Given the poor market conditions of the last few years, we hope that in some way by IML delivering on what we set out to deliver that we have made the challenge of reporting to clients more palatable for many advisers.

“Our clients always know what to expect when they invest in an IML Fund. This has been the case since our inception in 1998”.
