Old Mutual Global Investors is to make changes to its UK-domiciled funds, managed by Skandia Investment Management, effective from 11 March.
In April 2012, Old Mutual announced that it was to combine two of its UK asset management businesses, creating Old Mutual Global Investors - a new single asset management presence in the UK.
“Skandia Investment Management Limited (the authorised corporate director for any OEICs, or the unit trust manager for any unit trusts) has changed its name to Old Mutual Investment Management. The creation of the new entity will be reflected by a change to the names of the funds in the Old Mutual range,” the firm said in a statement.
The fund names will be changed as follows:
Global Equity Income Fund will become Old Mutual Global Equity Income Fund.
Global Best Ideas Fund will become Old Mutual Global Best Ideas Fund.
UK Strategic Best Ideas Fund will become Old Mutual UK Strategic Best Ideas Fund.
Ethical Fund will become Old Mutual Ethical Fund.
