Investment Management Association

The Investment Management Association (IMA) was a professional organization representing firms that manage investments for clients, such as mutual funds and pension funds. It provided industry standards, best practices, and advocacy to promote effective and ethical investment management. By establishing guidelines and facilitating communication, the IMA aimed to improve transparency, protect investors, and support the growth of the asset management industry. Note: The IMA has since been renamed or integrated into other organizations, but its core purpose was to support and regulate investment management firms in delivering responsible and efficient investment services.
