We are pleased to announce that Brandes has received a CityWire France 2022 award in the category of Best Fund Manager - Equity US Value. The award is presented to the best asset management groups and best fund managers in about 20 categories. The evaluation process considers managers' combined experience, strategy assets under management, consistency of benchmark-relative performance—among other factors.
Brandes Investment Partners, L.P. Director of Investments Brent Fredberg and Kathrin Schindler from Citywire discuss why investors upset by style drift may welcome the Brandes U.S. Value Fund.
