An Asset Management Company (AMC) is a corporation dedicated to investing financial assets, such as funds and money received from investors, companies, or other AMCs. These financial resources are allocated to companies that utilize them for different types of investments, including financial investments, operational investments, and other forms of investment, with the goal of fostering growth.
Consequently, the profits generated from these investments are distributed to the original investors, while a small portion is retained as AMC fees. Various terms, such as fund houses, money managers, and money management firms, are used interchangeably to refer to these entities.
An AMC company has the capacity to oversee multiple funds, each with its own investment and financial objectives. Fund managers are responsible for supervising these funds, defining financial and investment goals, evaluating the risk and reward factors involved, and subsequently selecting an appropriate investment strategy.
