I bought into two funds with Rabodirect about 18 months ago.
these were oppenhiem growth fund and oppenhiem managed fund. They are down 40% and 33% since. However they have been taken over by Merrion Investment managers since October 2008. When i looked into Merrion I see that they are owned by Landsbanki an Icelandic bank. Should I be worried ? The fund perfomance is probably par for the course at the moment , its the Icelandic connection Im worried about
Thanks for the reply , now for possibly a stupid question , if a fund manager went bankrupt does that mean all the money in funds they manage is gone as well ? Just trying to decide whether I cash in and consolidate my losses or hang in there for the long haul ...
