Aberdeen Asset Management

At Aberdeen, asset management is all that we do.
We have no ties to other financial institutions, allowing us to focus on our clients’ interests. We now manage over £113 billion of third party assets from our offices around the world. Our clients access our investment expertise across the three asset classes: equities, fixed income and property. We package our skills in the form of segregated and pooled products across borders. We invest worldwide and follow a predominantly long-only approach, based on fundamentally sound investments - we do not chase market fads. Aberdeen’s investment teams are based in the markets or regions in which they invest. Clients understand our process and portfolios because they are transparent.
