What Is Funds Management?
By WILL KENTON
A fund manager must pay close attention to cost and risk to capitalize on the cash
flow opportunities. A financial institution runs on the ability to offer credit to
customers. Ensuring the proper liquidity of the funds is a crucial aspect of the
fund manager's position. Funds management can also refer to the management
of fund assets.
In the financial world, the term "fund management" describes people and
institutions that manage investments on behalf of investors. An example would be
investment managers who fix the assets of pension funds for pension investors.
Divisions of Use
Fund management may be divided into four industries:
When classifying fund management according to client type, the fund managers
are either business fund managers, corporate fund managers, or personal fund
managers who handle investment accounts for individual investors. Personal
fund managers cover smaller investment portfolios compared to business fund
managers. These funds may be controlled by one fund manager or by a team of
many fund managers.
Some funds are managed by hedge fund managers who earn from an upfront fee
and a certain percentage of the fund's performance, which serves as an incentive
for them to perform to the best of their abilities.
