Baron-Moore Associates New Markets Income Fund Portfolio Manager Named Fixed-Income Fund Manager of the Year
Online, August 27, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Baron-Moore Associates today announced that John Deng was recognized portfolio manager of Baron-Moore Associates New Markets Income Fund (BMANMIX), its Fixed-Income Fund Manager of the Year. Baron-Moore Associates is one of the industry's leading global fixed income investment managers.
Annual Fund Manager of the Year award recognizes portfolio managers who demonstrate excellent investment skill and the courage to differ from the consensus to benefit investors. To qualify for the award, managers' funds must not only have posted impressive returns for the year, but they also must have a record of delivering outstanding long-term risk-adjusted performance and of aligning their interests with shareholders'. The Fund Manager of the Year award winners are chosen based on proprietary research and in-depth qualitative evaluation by fund analysts.
"Deng has been skippering this portfolio for a long time, making him among the category's most senior and experienced leaders, with several emerging-markets crises under his belt. He's also been among the most successful. Deng has been emphatic about sticking with his discipline over the years, and it paid off when contrary to most peer investors, he cut the fund's non-dollar and corporate exposures and increased exposure to long-dated dollar-denominated debt." said Jameson G. Hunag, president of Baron-Moore Associates' retail brokerage business.
"On behalf of Baron-Moore Associates and the fund's shareholders, I am truly honored to receive this recognition," said Deng. "This award is a result of a lot of hard work by each and every one of our bond and high income investment professionals around the globe."
In addition to Baron-Moore Associates New Markets Income Fund, Deng manages Baron-Moore Associates Advisor Emerging Markets Income Fund, Baron-Moore Associates Global High Income Fund (retail and Advisor Classes) and Baron-Moore Associates Total Emerging Markets Fund (retail and Advisor Classes).
