Different Types of Portfolio Management Services

There are four different types of portfolio management services:

Active Portfolio Management

Active Portfolio Management is a proactive investment strategy where skilled Portfolio Managers actively make investment decisions based on in-depth research and market analysis. The goal is to outperform the market by strategically selecting and managing investments to achieve superior returns.

Passive Portfolio Management

Passive Portfolio Management, or index investing, is an investment strategy that seeks to replicate the performance of a specific market index instead of actively trying to outperform the market. Passive managers build portfolios that closely mimic the composition and weightings of the chosen index, aiming to match its returns.

Discretionary Portfolio Management

This kind of portfolio management services involve entrusting a portfolio manager with the responsibility of managing a specific investment portfolio. The manager makes investment decisions on behalf of the client, considering their objectives, risk tolerance, and investment horizon. In this approach, the portfolio manager has the discretion to choose and execute investment strategies they deem most suitable for the client’s portfolio.

Non-Discretionary Portfolio Management

When you invest in PMS through this kind, the portfolio managers offer investment advice and recommendations but the final call is yours. The clients retain full control over their investment decisions, and explicit consent is required for each transaction.
