Commenting on the win, La Trobe Financial’s CEO Chris Andrews stated: “There have been plenty of challenges for investors across the past 20 years – the GFC, various economic, property and business cycles and of course the more recent COVID pandemic. Throughout all of these challenges, we are proud to have been able to provide our investors with consistent monthly returns.”
“We have been refining our investment approach since 1952 and strive, above all things, to be good stewards of our investor’s capital. We are very mindful of the deep reservoir of trust we have built with our investors, and will do all everything we can do preserve that trust”

Despite a challenging and volatile macroeconomic backdrop, we have not only been able to demonstrate significant business growth, we have also continued our proud history of delivering low volatility, inflation-responsive monthly income that our investors have come to know and trust.”
