Universal-Investment has been launching private label funds as mutual funds since 1970. This track record makes us one of the driving forces behind independent asset management. As a result of this long experience, we have acquired a broad range of knowledge regarding the administrative, technical and legal features of private label funds, and stand for the highest level of quality and transparency. As the central platform for independent asset management, Universal-Investment currently administers about 550 mutual funds with a volume of around EUR 24 billion. Universal-Investment combines the investment expertise of successful wealth managers, prestigious private banks, international asset managers and leading nvestment boutiques into a unique collection of top-class private label funds. The hallmark of Universal-Investment is the absence of a ‘house philosophy’.

Investors are therefore able to select from a vast range of mutual funds that use the widest array of investment philosophies and styles, depending on the market situation, risk appetite and investment objectives. Our comprehensive advice and support limit our fund partners’ own efforts and enable them to directly reach their goals. Our sales, marketing and communication experts also help clients to strengthen their long-term positioning in the market.

Universal-Investment also provides fund partners and investors with a separate platform for mutual funds that employ alternative investment strategies under the UCITS umbrella. This platform is one of Europe’s largest bundling of successful alternatives managers from around the world. Currently, 60 funds with a volume of more than EUR 5 billion are administered through this platform. Our extensive administration expertise ensures that these alternative investment strategies are implemented appropriately.
