Aberdeen Indirect Investment Management's (API IIM) core objective is to provide its clients with superior risk-adjusted investment performance by achieving top quartile returns while assessing and managing risk.
Independence
Being accepted by fund managers as a fully independent party is crucial to API IIM's ability to obtain full and sometimes sensitive information on funds that are candidates for investment. API IIM is a separate legal entity and acts completely independently from the rest of Aberdeen Property Investors. The separation is reinforced by the fact that API IIM is regulated by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (SFSA). This independence makes API IIM one of the very few indirect managers of property funds that are fully accepted by third party fund managers.
Market intelligence and contacts
Thanks to full acceptance in the market, more than seven years of investment activity, regular contact with fund managers and a proven process for updating our proprietary dabase of funds, API IIM has built far-reaching intelligence on which funds are currently in the market and the characteristics of these funds and their management teams. API IIM has developed an unrivalled range of contacts and a unique database of investors and their fund investments, which in turn gives API IIM the ability to identify secondary market opportunities.
Added Value
API IIM creates added value for its clients by having a specialised, experienced team dedicated to indirect investment, with an unrivalled range of contacs among fund managers and investors and robust, proven processes including, crucially, market-leading due dilligence. Being one of the world's leaders in its field gives API IIM economies of scale and increased leverage on third party fund managers on behalf of its clients.
