It is a year since Adrian Brass joined Majedie Asset Management’s fund manager bench from Fidelity Worldwide to take the reins of the boutique’s new US Equity Fund and co-manage the firm’s two new global equity funds.

Since its June 2014 launch, Brass's US Equity Fund has garnered assets of $76 million and delivered top decile performance, with a net-of-fee return of 13.1%, compared with its S&P 500 benchmark of 6.8%.
