The IAM has been fortunate in its formative years in having the loyal and enthusiastic support of its Patrons. Patrons help the IAM focus on relevant projects and work that will deliver the greatest progress for the discipline and practice of Asset Management.
The Patrons of the IAM are an exclusive group of Corporate Members who commit to a high level of activity and engagement with the Institute. The list of IAM Patrons includes leading asset managers not only within the UK but increasingly worldwide. In exchange for significant support to the Institute, Patrons have great influence not only on the direction of the IAM itself but also on the development of the discipline.
The contribution expected from Patrons is not only by means of higher subscriptions but, more importantly, by greater activity and contribution of people.
Existing Corporate Members (particularly leading asset-rich organisations) may be eligible for the President’s Invitation to be elected to this group. The Terms of Reference are available for download on the right of this page.
Patrons have priority in becoming involved with projects and activities. Representatives from the Patron Organisations are eligible for a number of exclusive meetings and seminars are made available at Board level.
Benefits in addition to those enjoyed by Corporate Members include:
A number of closed events are available only to Patrons, for example, the Patrons Group has been involved in cross-sector dialogue with regulators to promote good Asset Management.
The benefits of Patron Membership may be compared with other Corporate Membership categories on this page.
