Passive Fund Management

An investment strategy that focuses on building up a portfolio or fund of securities that mirrors the composition of a particular market, index or sector so as to match its rate of return and risk characteristics. Once assembled, the portfolio will be changed infrequently and usually only in response to changes to the index or sector. A fund managed passively is likely to have low transaction and management costs.
