Gold for KBL Key Fund - Eastern Europe
01.12.2008For the second consecutive year our bank was awarded a Laurier d’Or by the French magazine ”Investir” for excellence in managing its KBL Key Fund Eastern Europe. Specialised in emerging European countries and distributed in France by our subsidiary KBL Richelieu Banque Privée, KBL Key Fund Eastern Europe as in competition in the fund of funds category, all asset classes, and once again carried off the prize.
For Bernard Pons, the fund manager who received the prize on behalf of KBL European Private Bankers on 10 December 2008 at the Palais Brongniart in Paris, this second award is no surprise. “From last year, we knew that our fund had good chances of winning the award for the second time running since it had outperformed the other competitors. The reasons for this success can be found in our bank’s investment policy and our judicious choice of third-party funds. We were able to select the best fund mangers to work with us in time. The best proof of this is that last year, other categories featured many funds underlying our fund of funds and not just those invested in central Europe.”
Whether part of our funds of funds or recommended individually, we offer third-party funds that have been selected:
- totally independently, with no strategic alliances, contrary to numerous other players;
- by a European team of specialists;
- using a tried and tested process (not basing ourselves uniquely upon past performance as a private investor would do).
Detailed qualitative analysis based on numerous contacts and more than 800 site visits by managers every year follows an in-depth quantitative analysis.
This rigorous process ensures you have the best probability of selecting an investment fund capable of repeating its excellent performances to date.
