Portfoliometrix Discretionary Fund Managers (DFM)

PortfolioMetrix is a market-leader on innovation (the only firm to offer bespoke portfolios on a scalable basis) and the only fully independent DFM that have made technology and advice-integration a core competency.  Ultima takes comfort in the skills and integrity of the team and believes that the company’s independence minimises any potential conflicts of interest.

Allan Gray Fund Managers & Investment Platform

Allan Gray was established in 1974 and is the largest investment company being privately owned in Africa.  Their philosophy is to buy companies whose share price is less than their intrinsic value. The fund managers are of the opinion that the intrinsic value will appreciate over time as the dividends, net assets and earnings increase. Allan Gray also has an integrated investment platform to their disposal which hosts a selection of domestic and foreign fund options to the client’s disposal. These options range from single- to multi manager unit trust funds or a selected combination of any of these funds. Orbis Fund managers were founded in 1989 which acts as Allan Gray’s foreign fund managers.
