A MESSAGE FROM STEPHEN PEARSON, CIO, JUPITER

Jupiter and Merian have a strong cultural alignment with active, high conviction investing driving decisions on portfolio construction and management. We believe our newly combined product line-up offers investors an opportunity to access some of the best active funds available, managed by a world-class fund management team.
This acquisition has significantly enhanced Jupiter’s investment capabilities. Not only have we expanded our fund range to include attractive new propositions such as global systematic equity and liquid alternatives, but we have also been able to add scale to areas where we are seeing increasing demand from investors, in fixed income and emerging market debt. We are also delighted to welcome highly regarded investment professionals to our established team. They will bring new expertise and different views as well as new skills and long-term track records that complement our existing franchises, cementing Jupiter’s position as an attractive home for leading fund management talent.
Jupiter has always prided itself on the breadth and depth of expertise and products we are able to offer clients. The addition of Merian further extends this range, offering a strong, well-diversified line-up of active, high-conviction and high-performing investment strategies.
