Aviva Investors expands liquidity fund range
The return of liquid alternatives
According to Rob Lunn, head of UK distribution at MSIM, the fund will target investors looking to gain access to alternative assets and exposure to market-neutral factors in a liquid format.
The fund launch reflects the renewed popularity of so-called liquid alternatives funds which aim to be a ‘third’ asset class between equities and fixed income.
