With the globalization of the financial markets, the rise of pension and tracker funds, and the technical feasibility for anyone to trade almost anything at any time, some are questioning the very necessity of highly paid fund managers.

Always highly sensitive to global corporate trends, the asset management industry has been subject to huge changes in recent years.

This book discusses the changing nature of asset management and the implications for investors. It is based on extensive research and interviews with a large number of distinguished practitioners in the industry.

The issue of how technology has impacted on asset management is discussed and how, with the growth of the industry, more individuals are exercising control over their investments than ever before. Insightful and comprehensive, this book is a must for anyone involved in the management of money.

Aus dem Klappentext

Asset management has changed considerably over recent years. In this book, fund managers discuss the effect these changes have had on their business. Among the subjects featured, it is shown how the increased use of quantitative investment strategies and their application across equity related asset classes have helped investors in honing their skills as much as in evolving the tools they need to succeed in this new environment.

* Capital Market Revolution

* The Alpha and Beta of Investing

* Indexation

* Active Management

* Absolute Return Strategies

* Private Equity

* Socially Responsible Investing

* Concluding Observations
