KBC Asset Management Ltd Dublin (KBCAM) was formed in July 2000 when KBC acquired Ulster Bank Investment Managers (UBIM) from the Ulster Bank Group. It is part of the wider KBC Asset Management group of companies and is ultimately a subsidiary of the KBC Group.

Our business model is underpinned by a strong conviction that investors need to properly diversify and that the most successful investment managers are the ones who adapt a specialised approach. We believe investors, particularly pension funds, need to properly diversify not just across asset classes but also across investment strategies to generate consistent investment performance with less risk. To meet these needs we are committed to:

• Offering differentiated and innovative strategies
• Employing specialist investment teams

At KBCAM, we believe we have a clear competitive advantage on both fronts. We are one of the leading providers of innovative and specialist investment solutions and we have the experience and resources with our group, both domestically and internationally, to run very successful autonomous investment teams operating from multiple locations.
