Asset Management

Asset Management (abbreviated as AM) refers to the professional management of investments—such as stocks, bonds, real estate, and other assets—on behalf of individuals, institutions, or corporations. In the banking and finance sector, AM involves strategic planning and active portfolio management aimed at growing wealth while controlling risk. Banks and financial institutions with AM divisions offer tailored services through fund managers, financial advisors, and investment analysts, often leveraging data, analytics, and market trends to maximize returns for their clients.

AM plays a central role in modern banking, supporting long-term financial goals such as retirement planning, endowment growth, or capital preservation. Asset managers are entrusted with fiduciary responsibility, meaning they must act in the best interest of their clients. Services under AM may include discretionary portfolio management, mutual funds, ETFs, and bespoke investment vehicles, depending on client risk profiles and objectives.
