EMEA Finance named Amwal the Best Asset Manager in Qatar in 2013 for the third consecutive year.
In its announcement, EMEA Finance noted, “The firm’s ability to consistently outperform its benchmarks, and the fact that Qatar Gate Fund has outperformed its benchmark index each year since it was established — the only fund in Qatar to achieve this — makes Amwal a very deserving winner. Additionally, Qatar’s goal of making itself an asset management hub for the region requires strong local names like Amwal.”
Afa Boran, Head of Asset Management, said: “Our focus has been to build a long-term track record so that year after year we can show investors that a professional and methodical approach to managing money does deliver superior results. Over the past four years under the current investment team, the Qatar Gate Fund has outperformed the index by about 30 percent and the closest competitor fund by six percent.
