So, you want to buy an asset manager? Oh, you don’t? Awkward. Glibness aside, the fall in share prices has not resulted in any swoops from private equity. Selin Bucak finds out why.

Talking of falling markets, it doesn’t make selling a fund any easier. Senior US fund buyers share their advice on how (and how not to) pitch to them in this downturn.

As noted in our last newsletter, the industry’s margins are still impressively high compared with other lines of business. Delivery is important. This is why Amplify is again looking at elite performance in fund management. Today, we introduce the Bonds Elite. Just 225 managers made the cut from the global talent pool. Discover the most-represented groups and some notable names. 

We know that life moves fast in fund distribution, so we have a sector-by-sector breakdown of the managers posting the best numbers last month. Dip in, search our table and read our notes.

See you next week!
