Welcome to Setanta Asset Management

Established in 1998, Setanta has successfully applied a long-term value investing approach to its global equity and multi-asset funds. In October 2025, Setanta, Irish Life Investment Managers (ILIM), and Canada Life Asset Management’s external funds business have come together within a single legal entity – Keyridge Asset Management.

By uniting our strengths, we will have greater scale, deeper resources, and enhanced capabilities to continue delivering the outcomes you expect from us. Leveraging the combined scale of more than €150 billion in assets under management and over 300 investment professionals, this means:

• Broader expertise: Broader expertise: Access to a deeper and more diverse pool of investment specialists and research, strengthening the rigour of our existing processes and reinforcing the quality and breadth of our current product suite.
• Enhanced solutions: The ability to develop and offer more innovative, flexible investment solutions tailored to your evolving needs.
• Greater agility and speed to market:  Bringing the businesses together allows us to better consolidate, respond and innovate to the evolving needs of our clients with speed and agility.

The Setanta investment approach and philosophy remain at the heart of what we do. We invest our portfolios in good quality businesses that are durable, financed conservatively, run by trustworthy management with a shareholder focus and under-appreciated by investors at large for one reason or other. We protect our clients with sensible diversification, a healthy dose of scepticism, and a margin of safety ‘buffer’ embedded in our valuation work. We are diligent and patient investors, undertaking thorough investment research, developing a deep understanding of our portfolio companies and always with a long-term perspective.
