Following the announcement that Bill McQuaker is leaving Henderson Global Investors to join Fidelity later this year, we have placed four Morningstar Analyst Ratings Under Review:
Henderson Multi-Manager Active
Henderson Multi-Manager Distribution
Henderson Multi-Manager Income & Growth
Henderson Multi-Manager Managed
All four funds previously held a Bronze rating
Paul O’Connor, who was co-head of the Henderson Multi-Asset team with McQuaker, becomes sole head with immediate effect. O’Connor has been involved in the multi-manager funds’ tactical allocation decisions with McQuaker since the beginning of 2015, while the team’s Director of Research Chris Payne has taken the lead on strategic allocation. Previously McQuaker had sole responsibility for asset allocation. We are meeting with O’Connor in short order to understand the implications of McQuaker’s departure.
