ABOUT US

----

An investors alliance.

AAAIM is an alliance of prominent, successful Asian American leaders.

AAAIM is an alliance of prominent, successful Asian American leaders. AAAIM serves as a conduit between Asian American investment professionals and institutional investors.

Founded in 2006, The Association of Asian American Investment Managers (AAAIM) is a national non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) in the field of investment management.  Challenged with a lack of diverse executive leadership, AAAIM supports those trying to grow their careers by providing a forum for professionals in the industry to meet, network and create business opportunities.

Today, AAAIM is recognized as the national voice of AAPI investment managers and the only national organization with a database of AAPI investment managers.  Our expansive network of seasoned and rising investment managers handle $100 billion in assets under management and continues to grow as we further engage more people and raise awareness of our organization as a conduit that brings together industry leaders to meet, learn about current trends and issues from experts, and gain access to national and international institutional investors.

AAAIM’s efforts center around three major pillars :

Supporting Asian American leaders in their firms as they climb the corporate ladder.

Engage and support investment managers who choose an entrepreneurial path and focus on starting their own firms

Help young professionals advance their career by introducing them to peers and potential mentors

Board of Directors

AAAIM serves as a conduit between large sources of capital and the talent, experience and skills of Asian American investment professionals.
