The investment research firm gave UBS-HALO an A rating in its March 2011 Australian Equities Concentrated Review.
Van Eyk head of ratings Matthew Olsen said he was impressed with the depth of UBS-HALO's stock research and industry analysis and its investment discipline. The fund uses a bottom-up research method that focuses on long-term cash flows.
"They are happy to go against the crowd because they have conviction in their research and a disciplined method of determining value," Olsen said.
The addition of UBS-HALO to the Blueprint Australian Shares Fund follows the recent addition of two other concentrated, high-conviction strategies, the Sigma Select Equities Fund and Macquarie High Conviction Fund.
