Universal Investment awarded as one of the Top 150 companies in Luxembourg

PwC analyses 300 ManCos in its annual "Observatory for Management Companies" - and the Universal Investment Group performs excellently thanks to its many successful fund launches with asset managers and asset owners. The Luxembourg-based ManCo is once again the largest third-party ManCo in the Grand Duchy and is also ranked first in the top 10 largest Luxembourg AIFMs.

In this universal spotlight interview, he discusses why he thinks rigorous fund selection is regaining importance and how institutional investors can get support in finding promising fund strategies beyond their usual scope.
