<\/h2>\n
Emerging Managers to us are asset managers who have graduated from the start-up phase of a funds growth, with an established track record and a critical mass of assets at the fund level.Some consider a newer smaller fund from a large asset manager to be an emerging manager but that is not our focus<\/p>
In other geographies, emerging managers and diverse managers are looked upon separately. In our country of business, these two terms are generally ubiquitous.<\/p>
Many startups in our space are break away managers who left a larger parent organization.<\/p>
Emerging managers either aspire to become a transition manager on the way to an established manager or evolve into a boutique.<\/p>\n
\"We don\u2019t particularly like the term emerging managers, which is a highly institutional phrase. What we mean is newer managers who are less established and less proven as investors. However, we haven\u2019t yet come up with an equally pithy phrase to convey that!\"<\/h3>
