MI Select Managers Funds

Intermediaries

Our MI Select Managers funds hold multiple segregated mandates under one fund structure with the aim of improving operational and cost efficiency to benefit investors.

What are the MI Select Managers Funds?

Our six MI Select Managers funds, which are available to external distributors, have been a popular addition to our Managed Portfolio Service (MPS) since their launch in 2018 (the MI Select Managers Alternatives fund launched in 2022, and the Global and Emerging Markets fund launched in Feb 2026).

We’ve extended the range to include two new share classes. These are available directly to retail clients, advisers and professional investors using a manager-of-managers approach.

The funds have a number of underlying mandates managed by third-party investment managers, which have been chosen by our in-house Research team based on both qualitative and quantitative characteristics.
