It is composed of four parts. The first one analyses the various types of institutional investors, institutions which, with different objectives, professionally manage portfolios of financial and real assets on behalf of a wide variety of individuals. This part goes on with an in-depth analysis of the economic, technical and regulatory characteristics of the different types of investment funds and of other types of asset management products, which have a high rate of substitutability with investment funds and represent their natural competitors. The second part of the book identifies and investigates the stages of the investment portfolio management. Given the importance of strategic asset allocation in explaining the ex post performance of any type of investment portfolio, this part provides an in-depth analysis of asset allocation methods, illustrating the different theoretical and operational solutions available to institutional investors. The third part describes performance assessment, its breakdown and risk control, with an in-depth examination of performance evaluation techniques, returns-based style analysis approaches, and performance attribution models. Finally, the fourth part deals with the subject of diversification into alternative asset classes, identifying the common characteristics and their possible role within the framework of investment management policies. This part analyses hedge funds, private equity, real estate, commodities, and currency overlay techniques. . 606 $aInvestment banking 606 $aSecurities 606 $aBusiness enterprises?Finance 606 $aEconomics, Mathematical 606 $aRisk management 606 $aCapital market 606 $aInvestments and Securities$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/626020 606 $aBusiness Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/512000 606 $aQuantitative Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13062 606 $aRisk Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/612040 606 $aCapital Markets$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/616000 615 0$aInvestment banking. 615 0$aSecurities. 615 0$aBusiness enterprises?Finance. 615 0$aEconomics, Mathematical. 615 0$aRisk management. 615 0$aCapital market. 615 14$aInvestments and Securities. 615 24$aBusiness Finance. 615 24$aQuantitative Finance. 615 24$aRisk Management. 615 24$aCapital Markets. 676 $a332.6 702 $aBasile$b Ignazio$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFerrari$b Pierpaolo$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254887803321 996 $aAsset Management and Institutional Investors$92240018 997 $aUNINA
