Omnis Investments, manager of the Omnis fund range available exclusively to Openwork advisers, has signed a long-term agreement for Fundhouse to be its dedicated external investment consultant on fund manager selection.
Founded in 2007, Fundhouse is a fund adviser providing specialist manager research and is known for its strongly independent business model. Fundhouse is also uniquely regulated by the FCA for fund research, and the only business of its kind that publishes its fund selection track record.
Fundhouse will work alongside the Omnis investment team and the Omnis Investment Performance & Risk and Product Management committees. It will provide detailed research coverage of the Omnis fund range as well as assist with finding new managers for future Omnis fund launches.
Dominic Sheridan, Chief Executive Office, Omnis Investments, says: “As we expand the Omnis range, we have been keen to enhance our fund manager research capabilities, and Fundhouse is the perfect partner for Omnis in terms of the team’s expertise and flexibility in looking across the whole of the investment market. We are delighted to be working with them.”
Rory Maguire, Managing Director, Fundhouse, says: “It is a real privilege to work alongside the Omnis team as their independent manager selection consultants and it is humbling to know that our advice will impact thousands of advisers and clients across the UK’s largest financial services network. Our focus on finding strong fund managers, by applying our detailed, objective fund research, is a good fit with the needs of the Omnis team. We look forward to adding long-term value to their clients and advisers.”
