ABOUT US

Adding real value to the services advisers offer their clients. This in turn helps the service they’re able to provide to you, their client.

We take the time to get to know the advisory businesses we work with.

We develop an understanding of how the business operates and their clients’ needs in order to add real value to the service your adviser can offer.

Experience matters

The team behind Eden Park Investment Management (EPIM) has worked in financial services for many years and have first-hand knowledge of what financial advisers and their clients need from a discretionary fund manager.

The company is proud to be part of the Clifton Asset Management group of companies which has achieved the Gold standard for Investor in Customers. The ethos of achieving Total Customer Satisfaction extends throughout the company. This applies to the services we provide directly to advisers but also in the way we design our services to ensure they are right for investors.

Our Investment Philosophy

Thoughtful. Effective. Consistent.

At Eden Park Investment Management, we provide investment management based on a focused commitment to our core principles.

Our Core Principles

We aim to achieve excellent returns whilst considering risk, costs, investor requirements and providing fair value to investors. It is not our goal to focus wholly on chasing superior market-leading investment returns at any cost.

We believe that an excellent performance record and the delivery of fair value is achieved through professional management, effective diversification, and consistency in returns over the longer-term.

Managing Assets and Providing Value

We typically aim for a three to five year holding period (at least) to mitigate fears associated with short-term market volatility.

Financial advisers will work closely with investors to determine their circumstances, risk profile, goals, aspirations, etc, which will help determine an appropriate investment strategy. This will provide the mandate for us to manage customer’s funds within an appropriate risk-profiled portfolio.

We are proud to work alongside trusted and proven investment managers (Hymans Robertson Investment Services, Charles Stanley, LGT Wealth Management) to provide a range of varied and successful investment approaches within our comprehensive portfolio range and within agreed risk parameters.

Our managers can add real value by not simply replicating an index. This includes portfolios with full active management, and also portfolios where ‘passive’ (index-tracking) investments are actively managed to keep costs to a minimum.

Our Tailored service gives advisers access to a portfolio manager which can develop a tailored portfolio to accommodate more complex needs.

We also believe in sustainable investment to ensure we can accommodate the increasing appetite for ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) investing. Within our ‘Sustainable’ range, LGT Wealth Management aim to carefully select companies that shouldn’t conflict with your principles.

We find that many investors prefer a blended approach whereby a range of different investment approaches can be employed.

Furthermore, our robust internal risk framework and controls include ongoing peer / marketplace reviews to ensure our investment range remains competitive and presents fair value to the advisory community and their customers.

Ultimately, it is our aim to understand what financial advisers and their customers require, and to successfully deliver upon those needs through our commitment to our core principles, professionalism and delivering value to investors.

We have chosen to utilise the expertise and experience of Hymans Robertson Investment Services, Charles Stanley and LGT Wealth Management to power our Model Portfolio Service and Tailored Discretionary Service.

We believe their skills and knowledge, coupled with our outstanding service and support, will enhance a financial adviser's service proposition and deliver long term investment outcomes for clients.
