ABOUT US

You may not yet have heard of KBC, so let’s take this opportunity to introduce ourselves…

KBC Asset Management (Australia) Limited is an Australian funds management company that has tapped into the vast resources of its parent company, KBC Asset Management NV, to bring you the KBC Global Water Fund.

KBC Asset Management (Australia) Limited is the issuer of units in this Australian unit trust, which we call the KBC Global Water Fund and KBC Asset Management NV is the expert manager which decides on the best water-related companies to invest in. KBC Asset Management NV, with offices in Brussels, Dublin and Luxembourg, is a world renowned manager of ECO funds with a long and successful track record.

Plans are afoot to launch other funds in an ECO series, such as alternative energy and climate change funds. KBC is already well-known globally for its expertise in these fields and we’d like to give Australian and New Zealand investors the opportunity to tap into these exciting areas of investment.

KBC Group NV, the parent company of KBC Asset Management NV, is a Global Fortune 500 company (which means it is one of the 500 largest companies in the world based on revenue and profits). Its head office is in Belgium and its centre of excellence for active funds management in Dublin, Ireland. And that’s where KBC manages the investments of our KBC Global Water Fund.
