Asset management plays a key role in financial services. It involves acquisition, oversight, and optimization of investments to boost the worth of a client's assets over time. Further, asset management companies are also recognized as money managers or investment firms that handle assets for all sorts of clients. These include wealthy people, pension funds, insurance companies, and other big investors.

Moreover, asset management aims to grow client assets while maintaining an acceptable level of risk. In order to accomplish this, asset managers use different approaches, including active and passive management.

The size and complexity an asset manager's operations include small independent firms that operate individual accounts for clients to large global firms running trillions in AUM across investment products such as mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and hedge funds.
