The French fund house becomes the world’s largest responsible asset manager to help asset owners implement sustainable investing, underlining its serious commitment to ESG.

For our final set of award descriptions we reveal our top hedge fund manager, the best institutional solutions provider, Asia's top fund house and the asset manager of the year.

In fixed income markets, where a hike of a few basis points in interest rates could negate a year’s worth of income, risk-free assets are no longer the norm. Putting theory into practice to uncover opportunities means paying attention to detail.

Amundi is launching the world’s largest emerging markets green bond fund with IFC. Here's what it could achieve.

The fund house is laying off most of its investment and operations staff in Hong Kong and Singapore in a post-merger restructuring, while keeping teams intact elsewhere in the region.
