MEDIA RELEASE: Zenith Investment Partners (Zenith) will distribute products owned by its parent company, FE fundinfo, under the Zenith brand in Australia.

Zenith CEO David Wright said that while FE fundinfo will remain the global parent brand, the strength of the Zenith brand in Australia has created a unique opportunity to deliver a best-of-group offering tailored for local client needs under a single, established brand.

“This is an exciting opportunity to bring together leading global fund data and technology, with respected investment research and managed account solutions, and offer an expanded suite of investments, research, digital tools and data to the Australian financial services industry.

“It will ensure our business remains truly client-focused and enable us to create a local service offering for FE fundinfo’s solutions to address the specific needs and priorities of the Australian market.”

FE fundinfo’s data and fund document production services will continue to be managed and delivered by the global business based in London, retaining dedicated Australian-based resources to service the data and product delivery needs of local clients.

In 2021, FE fundinfo acquired Zenith, an acquisition which also included respected superannuation data and research business, Chant West.

“Throughout the evolution of our business, the enduring focus has been on meeting the diverse and changing needs of our clients. While the breadth of our service offering is growing, our commitment to empowering our clients - to drive exceptional outcomes for their end clients - remains the same.”
