A year ago Financial Standard embarked on an ambitious project designed to understand what today's investors want from their investment manager.

The result is a multi-layered quantitative analysis across hundreds of investment products culminating in our 2018 Investment Leadership Awards.

The results of the awards have been published in The Good Investment Guide - the Managed Funds edition, which is out in all good newsagents and bookstores in March 2018.

The Good Investment Guide has been created to help investors understand how managed funds work and explains how they can access managed funds. Using the information in the Good Investment Guide, investors will be equipped with knowledge to choose the best managed funds to suit their needs.
