- Built with a distributor's mindset, the platform represents a new approach to asset management that harnesses the scale of Group and puts the needs of clients at the very centre.
UniCredit has today announced the launch of its onemarkets Fund[i] - a new funds family that will expand the range of investment solutions offered to network clients across the Group.
Through onemarkets Fund, UniCredit will offer an exclusive selection of bespoke investment opportunities managed by a team of experts under a framework designed to ensure quality and the specific risk-return profile of the selected strategy throughout the cycle.
The selection and design of the funds is based on UniCredit's deep knowledge of its clients - with products developed inhouse and through strategic partnerships with leading asset managers.
The first wave of funds is made up of three multi-asset and four equity (global and thematic) bespoke funds, structured with the involvement of Amundi, Blackrock, Fidelity, J.P. Morgan and PIMCO, with sales already starting across Italy, Germany and Austria.
The product offering will be gradually enlarged, leveraging on UniCredit's 'open architecture' approach.
At the same time, the initiative is concrete result of the bank's UniCredit Unlocked strategy and ambition to drive sustainable, capital-light revenues with a client-centric approach.
Commenting on the launch, Richard Burton, Head of Client Solutions, UniCredit, said:
"Across all areas of the business, we are putting the needs of our clients firmly at the centre of everything we do. The launch of our onemarkets Fund represents the latest step in this direction as we broaden our range of investment solutions. But the realisation of this initiative is also a story of cross-business collaboration. When we unlock the potential of the Group, it is clear we have the scale and expertise to deliver industry-leading products and services.".
UniCredit Group Investment & Protection Products oversee the development and management of the bank's global investment product offering across all countries and client segments - managing relationships with Group partners as well as the bank's internal asset manager.
The onemarkets brand offers a wide range of investment products which embed different levels of risk tolerance, as well as various market strategies and investment horizons.
