Winnipeg-based Investors Group Inc. has announced that JPMorgan Asset Management (Canada) Inc. will become portfolio advisor for the large-cap growth mandate within its iProfile International Equity Pool, effective Feb. 28, pending regulatory approval. The large-cap portion of the pool invests primarily in growth-oriented, large-cap equity securities in Europe, Australia, Asia and the Far East, and its investment strategy is expected to remain the same under JPMorgan. “We do reviews every year and found JPMorgan was best suited to manage this portion of the pool, based on [JPMorgan’s] strong performance,” says Aaron Margolis, Investors Group’s assistant vice president, product management. JPMorgan replaces New York-based
Fiduciary Trust Co. International.
