First Global PMS

IME Rating

IME PMS Rating

3 of 5 stars

FirstGlobal is an established broker since 1994, with a newer PMS entity launched in Feb 2020. Devina Mehra leads the funds, but the strategies are still building a track record over market cycles.

The PMS/AIF AMC Rating is derived on the basis of our analysis on 5 key qualitative parameters that we use to analyse the quality of a PMS/AIF Provider. These include an assessment of the size of the AMC, the pedigree of the AMC, the pedigree of the team, the value of the investment philosophy & the level of differentiation. These insights of our central research team are documented in the IME RMS, and can be accessed during a consultation call with an IME PMS specialist.
