institutional investing

Institutional investing refers to the investment activities conducted by large organizations, such as pension funds, insurance companies, mutual funds, and endowments. Unlike individual investors, these institutions manage substantial sums of money, using professional expertise to make informed investment decisions. Their goal is to grow their assets over time while managing risks to meet financial obligations or strategic objectives. Institutional investors often have more resources, access to exclusive investment opportunities, and can exert significant influence on markets due to their large buying power. This can lead to more stable, long-term investment strategies compared to individual investors.
