When it comes to building long-term wealth, consistency is key. Whether you’re saving for retirement or growing your wealth, steady performance over time makes all the difference. That’s why the MPF industry celebrates strong and reliable results amongst its best performers at “The MPF Awards,” and at the 2026, and 14th edition of “The MPF Awards,” the spotlight will be well and truly on Manulife!
Manulife’s performance over the short, medium, and long term will see it collect an array of “Best Performer” awards at “The MPF Awards,” a result that underscores its commitment to deliver consistent, high-quality results for its members, especially through its flagship MPF scheme, the Manulife Global Select (MPF) Scheme.
Why Best Performance Matters
Consistency is a cornerstone of Best Performance and the key to long-term wealth creation. “The MPF Awards” recognize this by celebrating funds that go beyond impressive absolute short-term results. The “Best Performer” awards also focus on balancing returns and risk over the long term.
In summary, 1-year “Best Performer” award winners are recognized as the funds with the best absolute returns in their respective fund categories. Meanwhile, the 5, 10, 15, and 20-year “Best Performer” awards are given to funds with the best performance after factoring in the level of risk taken annually. Measuring both returns and volatility ensures a fair evaluation.
With 18 “Best Performer” awards across two MPF schemes, Manulife’s results speak volumes. They showcase Manulife’s ability to generate steady performance across different asset classes, time frames, and market conditions, especially over the longer term. Out of the 18 “Best Performer” awards won by Manulife, 13 are for investment periods of 5 years or longer.
Manulife’s Award-Winning Achievements
Manulife delivered standout results across multiple categories, demonstrating a disciplined and diversified investment approach. Here are the highlights:
- Japanese Equities: Best Performer for 20, 15, 10, and 5 years. With investments in top Japanese companies across industries such as technology, industrials and financials, this fund has consistently delivered medium-to-long-term capital growth.
- Asian Bonds: Recognized for 10-year performance, reflecting strong returns through capital appreciation and income generation.
- RMB Bonds: Best Performer for 10, 5, and 1 years, offering competitive long-term returns from Mainland Chinese fixed income securities.
- HKD Bonds: Recognized for 10 years and 1 year, further proving Manulife’s stability and reliability.
- Conservative Fund: Earned the 5 and 1-Year Best Performer award. Long-term performance matters, even for the lowest-risk fund choices.
Recognised for Best TVC Product
Manulife also earned the Best TVC Product award at MPF Ratings’ “The MPF Awards.” This award highlights Manulife’s leading standard in offering a tax-deductible voluntary contributions (TVC) option, designed to enhance retirement reserves while providing members with tax savings. TVC contributions are tax-deductible under salaries tax and personal assessment in the MPF system, making it a smart way to not only save for retirement but also benefit from annual tax deduction.
TVC is a retirement financial planning tool. Similar to contributions made under other MPF accounts, members have the right to choose the constituent funds offered by the MPF scheme and can make their investment decisions according to their investment objectives, personal circumstances and future plans. For example, a member approaching retirement age may prefer funds with lower risks, while a younger member may consider more aggressive funds with potentially higher investment returns.
Fund performance is one of the considerations when allocating TVC contributions, and Manulife’s strong track record, reinforced by its multiple “Best Performer” awards, continues to position it as a top choice for members seeking consistent and reliable results.
The Manulife Difference
These “Best Performer” awards highlight more than just numbers — they reflect Manulife’s dedication to balancing short-term wins with long-term growth. By blending disciplined investment strategies with a focus on diversification, Manulife continues to deliver results that matter to its members.
Whether through equities or bonds, or anything in between, Manulife’s consistent performance reinforces their position as a leader in the MPF landscape. Their success puts them firmly in the spotlight at the 2026 edition of “The MPF Awards” and is a testament to the power of steady, reliable performance in helping members achieve their financial goals.
