Artio Global Management LLC
 Artio Global Management LLC Investment ManagersFinance Artio Global Management (AGM) manages a variety of global equity and fixed-income investment strategies. The firm focuses on creating highly-diversified portfolios of attractive securities that are based on benchmarks, while being willing to actively depart from them in the pursuit of superior risk-adjusted returns. Their strategies include international equity, global equity, US equity, investment grade fixed-income, high yield and core plus. AGM's international equity strategies are core strategies that do not attempt to follow either a growth approach or a value approach. The strategies invest in equity securities in developed and emerging markets outside the US. They seek to maintain a diversified core portfolio that is driven by dynamic sector and company fundamental analysis. AGM's objective is to invest in a highly-diversified portfolio of the most relatively attractive securities in over 20 countries. The Artio Global Equity Strategy is a core, multi-cap equity strategy that invests in companies throughout the world. The strategy employs the same investment process as AGM's international equity strategies, but includes investments in US equities. AGM's US equity strategies include micro-cap, small-cap, mid-cap and multi-cap. The strategies invest the stocks of US issuers with market-cap relevant to each category. AGM employs an individual stock selection approach that is based on in-depth fundamental research, valuation and scenario analysis, rather than market timing or sector/industry concentration. The process employs the use of both qualitative and quantitative analysis. AGM's investment grade fixed-income strategy focuses on investments in the high grade debt of both US and non-US issuers. Their main offering is the Artio Total Return Bond Strategy, which must invest at least 60% of portfolio assets in the US fixed-income markets and also seeks to take advantage of opportunities in the investment grade non-US markets. The Artio High Yield Strategy invests in securities issued by non-investment grade issuers in both developed and emerging markets. AGM's core plus strategy combines their investment grade fixed-income strategy with their high yield strategy. The strategy employs an allocation model to complement the firm's top-down macro view. | Finance |
