问题如下:
Which of the following groupings are best described as asset owners in the financial system value chain?
选项:
A.Fund managers, endowments and banks
B.Pension funds, insurance companies and foundations
C.Sovereign wealth funds, family offices and investment consultants
解释:
B is correct because asset owners include "pension funds, insurers, banks, sovereign wealth funds, foundations, endowments, family offices, individuals."
A is incorrect because asset managers "act as agent on behalf of clients (asset owners)" and are differentiated from asset owners in the value chain. "The main stakeholders are: Asset owners … Asset managers."
C is incorrect because investment consultants are intermediaries and act between asset owners and asset managers in the value chain by "providing investment advice" , and therefore represent their own category. Also, "the main stakeholders are: Asset owners … Asset managers … Fund promoters." Since asset consultants are fund promoters, they are not part of the asset owner group.
请详细说明A选项各个组织所属的类型,谢谢
