Mercer investment research strategy leader Beverley Sharp said: “The dynamic of the wealth landscape is changing rapidly. Individual investors are taking on greater responsibility for their long-term savings to fund their retirement years.
“Mercer FundWatch is intended to give those investors and their financial advisers access to high-quality analysis on funds that has typically been available to institutional investors.”
The new rating service is said to utilise a research methodology that evaluates fund characteristics and their performance over the market cycle. The service will be supported by the company’s global investment research.
Asian wealth expert Janet Li said: “I am thrilled this service is launching in Singapore, where individual investors and their financial advisers are investment savvy, aware of the importance of self-funding retirement, and are looking for tools to help them with that goal.”
