It is a pioneer and leading practitioner in responsible investments in China and is widely recognized as one of the most trusted and outstanding Chinese asset managers.

The cooperation and exchange with IAM will help E Fund provide a more diversified range of products and higher-quality services to our investors. It will also serve as a bridge for investors in Brazil and the broader region to understand and invest in China. We will explore with IAM a broad set of possibilities for collaboration.”

IAM is the asset management company of Itau Unibanco, one of the largest banks in Latin America. IAM’s roots trace back to 1957 when it launched Brazil’s first equity mutual fund. With more than 65 years of history, IAM remains at the forefront of the Latin American financial sector with more than USD 170 billion AUM across a complete platform of products, including ETF and other listed funds, fixed income and private credit products as well as a multi-strategy platform with more than 120 portfolio managers. IAM’s structure includes more than 200 professionals in offices in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, New York, Miami and Santiago.

“The partnership with E Fund is aligned with IAM’s strategic agenda of always seeking the best investment opportunities for our clients, in any scenario and with geographic and asset diversification. Additionally, it contributes to our international expansion, broadening the scope and reach of our offerings and strategies,” said Carlos Augusto Salamonde, Head of Global Investment Management at IAM.
