[2026 Asia Fund Awards] NH-Amundi "Pilseung Korea Fund" Boasts Solid Track Record Outperforming KOSPI

Best Fund in the Domestic Fund Category

At the 2026 Asia Fund Awards, NH-Amundi Asset Management's "Pilseung Korea Fund" was selected as the Best Fund in the domestic fund category.

NH-Amundi Asset Management is the seventh-largest comprehensive asset management company in the industry and manages a wide range of asset classes, including equities, bonds, alternatives, overseas assets, and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). As of the end of January this year, it had 7.419 trillion won in assets under management.

The Pilseung Korea Fund is NH-Amundi Asset Management's flagship public offering fund and delivered an annual return of 113.01% last year. This far exceeds the KOSPI's gain of 75.63% over the same period. The fund is characterized by enhanced stability through active pre-emptive risk management designed to prevent concentration in specific sectors or stocks. Based on systematic management, it is assessed to have built a solid track record, having underperformed the KOSPI index in only one year since its launch in 2019.

The fund's size has also grown in line with its strong performance. The fund's net assets, which stood at 295 billion won at the beginning of last year, increased to 880 billion won by around year-end and, as of January 14, surpassed 1 trillion won.
