Investment management is a conglomerate service provided by firms that invest and manage funds professionally for their own account or clients. The roots go back to the 18th century, and throughout the years, it has turned itself into a main category in the financial services sector. The investment management segment gained immense traction, only in the second half of the 20th century. During the late 80s and early 90s, the segment grew even more due to the rise in global economic expansion. In the early 2010s, firms started to pivot towards financial technologies that are growing rapidly. Terms like machine learning, big data, predictive analytics, and robotic process automation are becoming quite popular within the investment management companies working in a very competitive landscape.

The success of an investment management firm depends on various aspects. In most cases, these companies employ certified and professional portfolio managers, traders, marketing personnel for the company’s products, and research analysts. In the global investment management setting, the investors are demanding more transparent reporting, and along with that, regulations are also becoming stricter. Only when the firms take a strategic approach to matters regarding risk management, regulatory compliance, information security, and data management can these firms thrive. There are various investment management firms globally, but one that stands out from the rest is The Fontana Organization INC. Since its inception in real estate in 1991, the company’s business’s growth across both products and geographies has expanded its ability to provide practical and diverse solutions to its limited partners. The Fontana Organization INC has invested successfully through all market cycles and across the entire risk spectrum. The company invests thematically in high-quality assets, focusing where it sees outsized growth potential driven by global economic and demographic trends.

The Fontana Organization INC seeks to acquire undermanaged, well-located assets across the world. In connection with these acquisitions, it builds businesses that are set up to manage the underlying properties and ultimately maximize their value by instituting best-in-class management. Post-acquisition, the company also invests in the properties to improve them before selling the assets and returning capital to our limited partners.
