Investment Management
The role of investment managers and investment management firms is to act on behalf of and in the best interests of clients. Investors entrust their financial assets to investment professionals, who owe a duty to their clients to seek the best strategy possible based on due diligence in understanding the clients’ goals, objectives, risk constraints, and needs.
Investment managers are responsible for:
- Consistent and transparent performance reporting
- Fair dealing in applying best execution and suitability standards to client dealings
- Compliance with appropriate ethical, regulatory, and professional standards
- Independent and unconflicted governance of the firm
Our positions and research on investment management are based on our codes, standards, and guidelines.
