The Managed Investments Act of 1998 mandated the provision of a Responsible Entity (RE) as the fiduciary registered Managed Investment Schemes (MIS).  That makes the choice of RE is a critical decision.

Choosing the right RE helps protect investors while allowing investment managers to concentrate on the business of choosing and managing investments. 

Equity Trustees relieves investment managers of the day to day responsibilities of  managing the regulatory and compliance obligations as well as give investors another reason to have full confidence that their investment is being managed to the highest standards.
