Boston, MA,- Winslow Management Company, LLC, a pioneer in green investing since 1983, is pleased to announce that the manager of the Winslow Green Growth Fund, an environmentally responsible, small cap growth mutual fund, was ranked as the #1 fund manager in the aggressive growth category in the annual Barron's / Value Line mutual fund manager survey for 2006. The fund's manager was ranked #9 among all equity mutual fund managers in the survey.

Jack Robinson, lead manager for the Fund, viewed the ranking as an affirmation of Winslow's green investing philosophy. "Aggressive growth managers did very well generally in this survey, since that investing style has been in favor for the past few years," Robinson said. "But for Winslow to be ranked higher than any other aggressive growth manager - that's a terrific confirmation of the tremendous growth opportunities in green investing." Robinson has been the fund's portfolio manager since its inception in 2001, with Matthew Patsky joining as co-manager in 2003.

The Winslow Green Growth Fund is an environmentally responsible, small cap growth mutual fund that invests in clean technology companies and green sectors such as renewable energy and natural foods. Information about the Winslow Green Growth Fund is available at www.winslowgreen.com.

The Value Line survey screened more than 3,444 equity mutual funds, eliminating those with more than two lead managers, as well as managers with less than three years' tenure. Value Line then organized the survey by investment objective, cutting sector funds and offerings with less than $100 million in assets. Only 505 managers finally qualified to be ranked. The survey was published in the August 14th issue of Barron's, a leading financial publication.

Winslow Management, the adviser to the Fund, attributes a great deal of its success to its thorough research methods that integrate environmental and financial analysis. The firm specializes in small-cap growth investing and focuses on clean sectors such as software and healthcare technology, as well as green sectors such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, organic food production and distribution, and green construction. Winslow's strategy is to find hidden opportunities among the small companies in these market niches - companies that appear poised for rapid growth, or companies whose stocks are unrecognized by the broader market.

Managers in the Barron's / Value Line survey were scored based on how much risk-adjusted value they added relative to others with the same Value Line investment objective. "The fact that Value Line and Barron's considered risk-adjusted value for their survey is appropriate," Robinson said. "Investors in the Winslow Green Growth Fund have always seen a certain amount of short-term volatility due to our investing style, and it's important that anyone looking at the Fund consider whether we're adding enough value to justify that volatility."

The Winslow Green Growth Fund is available in investor and institutional share classes, and can be purchased directly or through a number of brokerage platforms. Winslow Management Company also manages separate accounts for individuals and institutions, and a hedge fund that is open to qualified investors.
