Jennison Associates

Founded in 1969, Jennison Associates specialises in a select range of active equity and fixed income investment strategies. The firm’s expertise spans style disciplines, geographies and market capitalisations.

Jennison is dedicated to delivering consistent, sustainable long-term outperformance and exceptional service. The firm’s success is measured by client results, which are reflected in the longevity of its partnerships. Client relationships average more than 17 years, and more than one-third of clients have been with the firm for more than two decades. This singular focus on the client is the foundation of Jennison’s culture and guides all decision-making.

The firm’s investment process is based on independent thought, individual accountability and performance, and how these come together to achieve client-centric goals and objectives. Its approach is underpinned by the belief that long-term excess returns can be achieved by identifying and investing in market-leading opportunities. For more than 55 years, Jennison’s team has successfully applied these principles to construct portfolios.
