2. Size
We are exposed to greater opportunities due to the size of our Asset Base
Because we are significant shareholders in most of the companies we invest in, we are able to arrange meetings with management, where smaller shareholders might not
We have significant influence at a board level and maintain active shareholder participation in AGMs and EGMs on behalf of our clients
3. Experienced Front-office Team:
We have over 80 years combined experience in Emerging Markets
4. Strong Back-office Team
We have robust settlement and custody services
5. Sturdy IT System
We use a robust internally developed and tailored ITEMS (Imara Treasury and Equities Management System) to manage all our client portfolios.
The system is owned by the business, having developed it and customized it to our business specific requirements.
Having proprietary rights to the system allows us to modify it as and when necessary and saves our business on access licensing fees, a saving we built into our product pricing.
All our data and access is run in encrypted format on multi-layered access rights in order to protect our client information. We apply the stringent Imara Group IT policy for all our dealings.
High Standards of Corporate Governance
Because of our global group structure, IAMZ has implemented policies and procedures in accordance with the regulations set by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) of the United Kingdom
