Bell Asset Management is proud to announce that our Bell Global Emerging Companies Fund has been awarded the 2025 Financial Standard Investment Leadership Award in the category of International Equities – Small Cap. The award was presented at this year’s MAX/ILA Awards evening, held at ILUMINA Sydney.

The recognition highlights the strength of our global small- and mid-cap (SMID) capabilities and our ongoing commitment to delivering value for investors.

Our investment team specialises in identifying high-quality companies with strong growth potential. We believe global SMID caps—positioned in a lifecycle ‘sweet spot’—often present superior opportunities for revenue and earnings expansion. These businesses frequently remain undiscovered, under-researched, or mispriced, offering compelling valuation upside.

Leveraging our expertise, the Bell Global SMID strategy was launched in 2016, positioning us as leaders in this sector. This capability has set us apart, allowing us to capture compelling opportunities.

“The award is a testament to the discipline, passion, and depth of expertise our investment team brings to the table every day,” said Ned Bell, Chief Investment Officer. “It reinforces our conviction in a fundamental, bottom-up, high-conviction approach to investing in high-quality SMID cap companies globally, a philosophy we’ve adhered to since the beginning. I’m very proud of the team and what we’ve achieved together.”
