NOAM engages in both active and passive investing and manages a wide range of funds across assets classes, regions, sectors and strategies. They manage three main types of funds: pure funds, which focus on a specific asset class or geographic region and use local market indices as performance benchmarks, diversified funds based on a global asset management model, and structured funds, whose objectives are predetermined by clients. Their individual portfolio managers, who specialize in particular geographical areas such as the U.S., Europe, or Asia are responsible for security selection; however, they are assisted by the geographically located analysts of ABN AMRO's global network. Strategic asset allocation is the result of the anticipation by portfolio managers of markets evolutions together with the recommendations of the firm's investment committee. The firm uses indices and quantitative research to position investments and to measure and set targets for initial and on going investments.
