BNP Paribas Asset Management Singapore Limited (BNP PAM)
Leader in European Fund Management

 

BNP Paribas Asset Management Singapore Limited (BNP PAM)
BNP Paribas Asset Management Singapore Limited (BNP PAM) is the investment management arm of BNP Paribas, the leading bank in the euro zone in terms of net profits. A subsidiary with its own resources, BNP Paribas Asset Management has US$311.40 billion* of assets under management and is one of the leading players in European fund management.

The asset management business employs over 1,300 staff in 20 countries. Its fund management teams are active in all of the world's major financial markets, including Paris, London, New York and Tokyo and Hong Kong. They are specialised by asset class, investment style and geographical area. BNP PAM has had an asset management presence in Singapore since 1993.

Besides the teams' international expertise and recognised know-how, their professionalism reflects:

  • highly structured fund management methods with an upstream, systematic comparison of the viewpoints of economists and market analysts and, a downstream, rigorous investment processes differentiated according to the nature of the assets under management
  • constant attention to security and risk control at every stage of the portfolio management process

Investment Philosophy
BNP PAM has chosen to focus on high potential sectors, in which it has significant strengths, given its size, know-how, and experience. Its teams are now specialised in clearly defined segments:

  • For fundamental active fund management, dedicated teams cover the main asset classes; for alternative and structured investments, our organisation combines the expertise of a specific platform with the know-how of very specialised partnerships
  • Our organisation is structured to put the client first. In each country in which BNP Paribas Asset Management operates, the sales teams are organised by client segment to ensure that they are locally focused and capable of offering distinctive product ranges and highly personalised services. On the strength of its position as market leader in France (top institutional asset manager and largest fund promoter), BNP Paribas Asset Management has also established itself as a major global player with over 400 institutional clients and over 700 distribution partnerships. BNP Paribas Asset Management has the resources to put its clients first: teams specialised by client segment in each of the countries in which the company operates, in order to be genuinely client focused; an extensive series of fund ranges tailored to meet the specific investment objectives and unique features of each client segment; and customised, modular services. “Our organisation puts the client first by providing a service tailored to meet their needs.” BNP Paribas Asset Management aims to provide its clients with optimal investment solutions by selecting the best external fund managers to complement our in-house expertise as part of a carefully monitored open architecture approach
  • BNP Paribas Asset Management has been rapidly increasing its presence in the markets of the future (Brazil, Korea, China, etc.), which will become powerful new sources of growth as well as provide more investment opportunities for all our clients
