Specialised Private Capital named Innovation Award winner at 2026 IMAP Managed Account Awards

Specialised Private Capital is pleased to announce we have won the Innovation Award, for a Tactical Asset Allocation (TAA) project at the 2026 IMAP Managed Account Awards.

Commenting on the award, Kieran Canavan, Chief Investment Officer at Specialised Private Capital said "progressive mindsets and a shared commitment to solving complex institutional and investor problems led to setting this new benchmark for the industry. This recognition reflects the strength of collaboration between two organisations willing to challenge how managed accounts have traditionally worked, and to build something better in its place. We were proud to work with J.P. Morgan on this initiative, and the result speaks to what's possible when global capability and local expertise come together with a genuinely shared purpose. I'd like to acknowledge the entire team at Specialised Private Capital who helped achieve this result — this award belongs to all of them".
