Key Points

  • It sets the fund’s strategy, takes buy and sell decisions and is responsible for the prospectus and KAP disclosures, while the fund’s assets are held by the portfolio custodian rather than on the company’s own balance sheet.
  • The founder’s scale, number of funds and past fund performance are among the factors investors consider.
  • a large founder does not by itself make a fund safe or successful.

How It Works

portfolio management companies are subject to Capital Markets Law 6362 and CMB rules; licensing, capital adequacy and manager qualifications are supervised by the CMB. Fund codes and names are listed on TEFAS together with the founder.

Interpretation

The founder’s scale, number of funds and past fund performance are among the factors investors consider. Funds of the same founder can carry very different risks, so evaluation should be fund by fund.

Pitfalls

a large founder does not by itself make a fund safe or successful. CMB decisions concerning a founder can affect how its funds operate; follow such developments through CMB bulletins and KAP.
