A new route for cash management


Investment philosophy


Our philosophy is based on a conservative approach. Our key priorities are aligned with what our clients most require from a liquidity solutions fund: security, liquidity and performance consistency2.
Being one of the world leaders in asset management sets very high standards. These standards are reflected in our unwavering search of investment security.

Risk management at the forefront


Based on a longstanding expertise of more than 30 years, we have built a strong culture of liquidity and risk management. Risks management is based on rigorous procedures, strict guidelines and sophisticated tools.

The investment and risk teams are highly experienced. Providing products that clients can trust has placed us in a position of strength in weathering the financial crises of the last years.

A responsible partner


Since its founding in 2010, Amundi has made responsible investment the core of its strategy, making environmental and social responsibility one of the company’s four founding pillars.

Managing over €800Bn in responsible assets1, Amundi stands as a leader in responsible investment. Moreover, since 2018, the company strengthened its engagement by increasing the number of initiatives.

This commitment can be observed in our investment processes as well as in the offering that we recommend to our clients, allowing them to define and implement their own responsible strategy.
