Clients

Aberdeen's main clients are institutional investors such as governments, national pension schemes, listed investment companies, foundations and charities as well as private banks and discretionary fund managers. We sell to individuals mainly through professional intermediaries. We also have extensive experience of the global consultant market, including the main UK and US firms.

Client relationship managers are located as close as practicable to core clients to ensure a high level of service. Client reporting, performance & risk monitoring, RFP teams and other core functions are centralised in the UK. We outsource non-core functions such as fund administration in order to focus on our core activities, manage overheads effectively and gain access to market-leading support systems. ^[2]
