Carlton player Chris Judd is just one of the many fans of one of Australia’s most highly regarded investors, Peter Cooper from Cooper Investors.

Peters CI Brunswick Fund of which he is still charged with managing directly has returned investors an annualised gain of 16.79% since inception in 2004.

However, Peter’s influence across the Australian investing landscape is much greater than the single performance of any of the Cooper Investors funds. Countless successful fund managers have cut their teeth learning how to invest the “Cooper’s way" before going on to start high performing funds of their own, speaking volumes about the culture that Peter and his team have been able to create.

As well as their flagship Australian Equities Fund, the team at CI manage Global and Asian Equities, Endowment style Funds and specialist funds.

Peter has in excess of 30 years market experience and is highly regarded for his passion, integrity and purpose.
