On the other hand, the partnership offers RAM access to Italian retail investors.
RAM CEO Thomas de Saint-Seine said: “Starting from today, the Italian market becomes even more important for our development plans.
“The assets’ growth that this will imply and the support of Mediobanca as a strategic partner will enable us to invest an even more consistent amount of resources in innovation and research, elements that are essential in order to be competitive in the systematic active management segment, especially in this context of growing importance of Big Data and Artificial Intelligence.”
The latest move comes shortly after Mediobanca’s acquisition of a 69% stake in RAM.
