Baring Asset Management

The Baring Group was founded in 1762 and the UK asset management team was established 40 years ago. Baring Asset Management was among the first to open an investment management office in the Far East over 20 years ago and launched investment operations in the US in the late 1970's. These activities were combined in one division, Baring Asset Management, in 1989. Operating today as part of the ING Group, one of the largest financial institutions in Europe and one of the world's largest providers of integrated financial services, ING is committed to being a major competitor in the global asset management business through a number of its operating entities that serve different markets. Baring Asset Management represents a critical component of that strategy. In many of the world's major pension markets, Baring Asset Management is the flagship of ING's investment management activities. Consistent with ING's management philosophy for all of its operating subsidiaries, Baring Asset Management operates with investment and business management autonomy. To ensure the ability to attract and retain superior staff, ING supports the maintenance of a 50/50 profit sharing arrangement that has been in place since 1983.
