Active Fund Management

    0.07 sec.
Active fund management
An investment approach that purposely shifts funds either between asset classes (asset allocation) or between individual securities (security selection).

Active Fund Management
The practice of a money manager or a team of money managers making investment decisions on what securities to include in a mutual fund or portfolio. Sometimes, active management exists within certain parameters; for example, money managers may only buy blue-chip stocks for a certain fund and growth stocks for another. The basic premise of active management, however, states that the managers can maximize the return for investors by buying or selling securities on a fairly regular basis. See also: Passive management, Indexing.
