FOORD RECOGNISED

Dave Foord, global CIO of Foord Asset Management, has received recognition for the success by ANZ New Zealand Investments Limited in New Zealand's recent Fund Manager of the Year awards. Mark Brown, Head of Equities at ANZ, attributed ANZ's success to "doing things the Dave Foord way".

ANZ New Zealand Investments Limited (previously OnePath (NZ) Limited), a subsidiary of ANZ Bank New Zealand, was awarded the Fund Manager of the Year and KiwiSaver Manager of the Year awards in New Zealand's 2013 FundSource Awards. The firm also picked up three sector awards for NZ Property, International Equity and NZ Fixed Interest.

Mark Brown worked as an analyst at Foord Asset Management in his early career, where he learned much of his grounding and skills.
