With IPAC just days away from announcing the winners of its 8th Annual awards, rival research house Morningstar has put out a "Special Update" press release saying it has given AMP a five star rating.
AMP, which is the largest managed funds company, is only the third company in New Zealand to have a five star rating. The others are WestpacTrust and Armstrong Jones.
Morningstar says it has bumped AMP up from being "a very good" fund manager to an "excellent" one for two reasons.
Firstly, many of the company's funds had had strong performance, compared to similar funds, which improved their ratings. Secondly, AMP Asset Management had disclosed some information which made Morningstar revise upwards its view on the group's corporate strength rating.
