Understanding the Key Differences Between Asset Managers and Asset Allocators

In this episode, we explore the fundamental differences between asset managers and asset allocators. We discuss the roles of each, with asset managers being the service providers and asset allocators being the ones seeking these services.

Rip also touches on different terminologies commonly used in the industry, such as asset owners and limited partners (LPs), and clarifies the relationship between asset managers, often referred to as general partners (GPs), and asset allocators in building portfolio strategies.
