Stanlib Property Income Fund - Experienced analyst leaves team

24 Jul 2014

Ndabe Mkhize, one of the experienced analysts, has left the Stanlib Property team to take up a role as deputy CIO at the Eskom pension fund.  His departure leaves a team of four including Chloe Ma, an inexperienced analyst who only joined the team in January 2014.    The team manage a Global Property fund, an Emerging Market Property fund and an African Property fund in addition to the SA Property fund, and state that their approach is to base their process on detailed, fundamental research.  We have concerns about the ability of the team to cover the universe of all four funds and to carry out their analysis of the property counters in sufficient detail.
