Day-to-day operating brief

What Fund Manager work looks like in practice

A Fund Manager makes or recommends investment decisions for portfolios under defined mandates and governance. Terms should specify asset classes, investment limits, research, dealing authority, risk and liquidity controls, valuation interfaces, client reporting, stewardship, personal-account dealing, inside information, conflicts, performance measures, committees and the distinction between judgement and guaranteed returns. Investment records should show how a decision fits the mandate, expected return, liquidity need and principal risks at the time, not only after performance is known. Capacity and concentration can change quickly across connected portfolios. Where stewardship or voting forms part of the mandate, conflicts and the rationale for significant decisions also need evidence. Orders should follow the fund's dealing and allocation framework, including treatment of limited liquidity and connected mandates. Where a thesis weakens, the record should explain whether holding remains deliberate, constrained or awaiting action. Client reporting must not selectively emphasise favourable periods or omit mandate-relevant risk. Cash subscriptions, redemptions and collateral needs can constrain investment timing and should remain visible beside security-level views. Valuation uncertainty and side-pocket or suspension decisions belong with the appropriate governance body.
