About Ashmore

Ashmore is a specialist Emerging Markets investment manager with over twenty years’ experience in these markets.

Based in London, the business was founded in 1992 as part of the Australia and New Zealand Banking Group. In 1999, Ashmore became independent and today manages US$77.7 billion (at 31 March 2013) in pooled funds, segregated accounts and structured products.

Ashmore's outstanding portfolio management and research team employs a liquidity-focused and value-driven strategy targeting total return. The company believes that active management focusing on asset liquidity and political dynamics with superior information and analysis leads to above average returns with lower risk over the cycle. Ashmore focuses on a number of investment themes including external debt, local currency, special situations (incorporating distressed debt and private equity) corporate debt, real estate and equity.

Testament to Ashmore's investment philosophy are the numerous awards and rankings by major rating agencies including Lipper and Standard & Poor's. However, of greatest testament to the company's success is the confidence which central banks, government and corporate pension funds, institutions and high net worth individuals have demonstrated by investing with Ashmore.

Over the years, Ashmore's principal goal has remained unchanged: to achieve superior investment results for its clients.
