Artemis and its subsidiary Artemis Fund Managers are a UK–based fund management business, offering a range of funds which invest in the UK, Europe, the US and the rest of the world.

Artemis' client investments are spread across a range of funds, two investment trusts, a venture capital trust, and both pooled and segregated institutional portfolios.[1]

History

Artemis was founded in 1997. In 2002 a majority stake was acquired by ABN AMRO;[2] that stake subsequently passed to Fortis.[3] Following a management buyout in 2010, Artemis is owned by Affiliated Managers Group (AMG) and the Artemis partners.[4] This is a financial partnership: AMG does not get involved in the day-to-day running of the business.

Artemis is a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) and has 29 partners, comprising fund managers and other key individuals at the firm.[5] The founders have said that one of the key determinants in long-term success is the stability of the investment team.

Operations

The firm's clients include retail investors, financial advisers and institutional investors such as pension funds and financial institutions.[6] The firm has offices in Edinburgh and London and, as at 30 September 2020, it managed £23.1 billion of assets.[7]

Headquarters

The firm's offices are at Cassini House, 57 St James's Street, London SW1A 1LD and 6th floor, Exchange Plaza, 50 Lothian Road, Edinburgh EH3 9BY
