Why SMMI?

Our competitive advantage summary

Independence
SMMI operates independently from the Sanlam Group investment management structures, and has its own staff and client base.

Stability
The assurance of being part of one of South Africa’s most credible, successful and stable financial services groups

Light on our feet
We are a small team of experienced professionals operating within an efficient and effective management structure. We benefit from the best of both worlds as an entrepreneurial business with access to expertise in specialist areas within the larger Sanlam Group.

Globally integrated, locally accessible
We understand the issues facing investors in the global arena.

Critical mass
Because SMMI is one of the largest multi-managers in South Africa, critical mass goes without saying. Being custodians of sizeable mandates, we tend to be given preferred client status with asset managers.

Active portfolio construction
Access to best-of-breed global managers for every asset class and investment discipline.

Undiluted alpha

Our policy of allowing maximum "degrees of freedom" in each mandate gives managers more opportunity to add alpha.

Broad spectrum of investment vehicles

Provides investors with flexibility and customisation.
