Passive Management
The practice of a money manager or a team of money managers making investment decisions on what securities to include in a fund or portfolio, and then leaving those securities largely unchanged for a significant period of time.

Passive investment managers seek a well diversified set of securities. See also: Indexing, Active investing, Value investing.
