• Ausbil was established as a joint venture between Banque Internationale a Luxembourg (BIL), a European bank interested in expanding in Australia, and a local investment management team primarily drawn from senior members of BZW Investment Management.
• BIL was established in 1856 and was Luxembourg’s oldest and largest banking institution. In 1997, BIL merged with two other regional European banks – Credit Local de France and Credit Communale de Belgique - to form the Dexia Group.
• Ausbil Dexia offered funds within a range of asset classes, including Australian equities, international equities, listed property and bonds. It also offered an enhanced index fund, a balanced fund, and a SICAV1, which is still managed today.
• Ausbil Dexia shifted its strategic focus to Australian equities a few years later. It also established an emerging leaders (ex-top 50) equities fund.
• In 2014, replacing Dexia, New York Life Investment Management acquired its current holding in Ausbil. Also in 2014, Ausbil rebranded to Ausbil Investment Management – marking a new stage in its evolution.
