MFS Investment Management has launched a new web portal targeted at the growing registered investment adviser segment. The portal gives advisers registered on the site access to information including fund attribution analysis, portfolio commentaries, portfolio holdings analysis, and sector/security attribution, said the Boston-based money manager, which is owned by Toronto-based Sun Life Financial Inc. The company said that most of the content available on the RIA portal had previously been available for research analysts conducting due diligence on MFS and its products. Other features on the site include multimedia clips from MFS portfolio managers and industry professionals, and a "quick pick" product grid designed to help advisors navigate MFS offerings. MFS managed $204 billion in assets as of Sept. 30.
