Following the Morningstar OBSR Analyst Ratings Meeting on 11th July 2013, we have downgraded the Old Mutual Voyager Strategic Bond fund to a Morningstar OBSR Analyst Rating™ of Neutral. The fund was previously Under Review following the announcement that the former fund manager, Adam Smears, had left the group.  Anthony Gilham is now sole manager having been involved with the fund for a number of years.  The fund is a multi-manager offering that invests in fixed income mandates across the fixed income spectrum.  While we acknowledge that Mr Gilham is a talented bond fund analyst, we do not have enough conviction in his ability to generate attractive performance through this mandate.  We believe a Neutral Rating is more appropriate at this time.
