Abstract

The asset management industry has been growing drastically over the last 15 years. It grew from 45,6 trillion USD to 103,1 trillion USD from 2009 to 2020, In Asia, it has grown 483% over the 11 years. Similarly, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa saw the most minor growth and were valued at trillions of USD. Retail investors now comprise 41% of the asset management industry in China and India and above 55% of the asset management investors in the country. Since the Healthy Growth of AMC is the same as Millions of Retailers in the respective Financial Sectors, It is necessary to study the Portfolio Management Strategies adopted by Asset Management Companies across the Globe in general and In India in Particular. Hence, an attempt is made to study the performance and strategies of global AMCs and also observe the opportunities and challenges the same across the globe with the main objective of understanding the concept of Portfolio Management Strategies and Asset Management Companies; to review the existing literature on the topic concerned; to analyze the opportunities and challenges of the same across the globe. The study is an observatory in nature and revealed that the main opportunity is to get support from the respective economies of the countries to get desired growth in AMC investments and exploit the developments in various sectors via making Portfolio investments by direct buying of financial instruments or through mutual funds. Similarly, this study seeks to shed light on how emerging markets like India would be helpful with its key govt initiatives by ease of doing business, tax concessions for Foreign Domestic Investments (FDIs) and Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) etc. The main suggestion is to diversify their assets based on risk tolerance which can reduce the costs of the operations by using economies of scale to minimize the costs. The survival of any AMC across the globe is mainly on the feasibility of their services which could be affordable to retail investors by the end of the day. Similarly, Technology is evolving fast, and asset management companies need to implement new tools as soon as they are released to use them to create more accurate models to predict market movements.
