Portfolio Management
passive portfolio management
Gestion passive de portefeuille
A management style in which the manager believes that capital markets are efficient — that is, all available information is already reflected in security prices, making it difficult to earn excess returns. The manager's objective is therefore to replicate the performance of a market index or sector by matching its risk and return characteristics, without relying on market timing or individual security selection.
