ACCI, asset management firm specialized in systematic strategies through its ACCI Dynamic fund family, has signed an exclusive agreement with Swiss fund manager BlueBox Asset Management to distribute its BlueBox Global Technology Fund in Latin America and Iberia (Spain, Portugal and Andorra).
In a press release, the firm has revealed that this 5-star Morningstar rated fund is managed by William de Gale, who was Portfolio Manager for 9 years for the BlackRock World Technology Fund. It was launched in March 2018 and has been backed by a broad range of institutional investors, which has allowed it to recently surpass 500 million dollars in assets under management.
In ACCI’s view, this is possible thanks to its differentiated approach among other strategies in the sector, largely avoiding mega-caps and focusing on enabler-type companies, with strong balance sheets, profitability and strong cash generation. It is a UCITS fund, available on the main trading platforms such as Allfunds, Inversis and Pershing, among others.
“This partnership with BlueBox will strengthen our product offering aimed at institutional clientele in Latam South and Iberia, adding a solid and consistent strategy such as BlueBox’s, with average annual returns of over 31% and 141% since its launch just over 3 years ago”, Antonio de la Oliva, Head of Distribution at ACCI, commented.
Gely Solis, Co-Founder of BlueBox Asset Management, said that this agreement with ACCI, “who have proven their impressive distribution capabilities in key regions” for us, will serve to broaden their investor base, consolidate their growth and “give access to a unique strategy such as BlueBox to a broad typology of investors in the region”.
ACCI continues its commitment to offer a wide range of high value-added strategies to institutional investors, complementing its own strategies with distribution agreements with outstanding alpha-generating asset management firms.
