For more than two decades, Zenith has been delivering premium research and portfolio construction services to the Australian market. Our services are designed for retail financial advisers, by industry experts, using our wealth of knowledge on the development and management of managed portfolios.
Our experienced and highly respected internal research team provides extensive specialist knowledge and insight that is at the very core of our managed portfolio solutions, making Zenith’s suite of options truly unique in the market.
We recognise the considerable opportunity managed accounts provide, as they fast become the preferred method of investing for Australian financial advisers. Driven by advances in technology, evolving investor needs and innovation in administrative systems, managed accounts can deliver higher performance potential, stronger compliance and substantial administrative efficiencies to financial advisers and their clients.
Zenith offers five specialist portfolios across both pension and super products on the CFS FirstChoice platform.
Our investment philosophy is anchored in the belief that quality active management will outperform broad markets over time, while mitigating risk. It’s this belief that continues to provide the basis for how we manage portfolios today.
Zenith has been operating a series of 5 risk profiles on the CFS platform since June 2009. The new CFS Specialist Portfolios which commenced on 27 September 2021 utilise the same investment philosophy, portfolio construction methodology and consulting team as the previous portfolios. However, they are new portfolios and past performance is no indication of future performance.
Leading the portfolio team for CFS managed accounts are highly experienced investment professionals Steven Tang and Shailesh Jain.
Managed account portfolio implementation is overseen by Steven, with key roles undertaken by Senior Consultants, David Wright, Ben Davis and Shailesh Jain, and assisted by members of the Zenith portfolio support, data, and administration teams.
Zenith has developed an internal ‘platform relations’ team to deal specifically with the implementation and ongoing rebalancing of managed accounts, a core part of any managed accounts service as each platform operates unique back-office functionalities. This team is led by James Damicoucas.
