GAM London is a multi-manager investor, actively managing funds and allocating assets in managed portfolios following a wide range of styles and strategies. Through their in-house and specialist third-party managers, they invest actively across asset classes and styles, with core capabilities in fixed income, equity, multi asset & solutions and systematic portfolios. The firm's core philosophy is called ‘intellectually honest investment management’ and it incorporates active, conviction-based investment decisions, bottom-up due diligence and applying continuous risk management to produce long-term results.

GAMCO-UK invests almost exclusively in equity, and very marginally in money market mutual funds. The firm’s investment approach utilizes fundamental, bottom-up research to identify securities selling below their intrinsic value, and they seek to identify mispriced companies with strong businesses and the presence of a catalyst that will surface value. Portfolio management and research are shared within the group, with analysts responsible for the global coverage of each industry.

Acts as Closed-End Investment Fund/Investment Trust

GIML offers various investment products and services through managed account and investment fund structures using both fund of funds and single-manager strategies. Each of the investment teams pursues their own individual approach and preferred investment style so that they have the flexibility to implement their talents to the greatest effect, but within the wider risk control framework provided by the GAM Group. Their security analysis primarily includes fundamental analysis, but it may utilize other methods, like technical analysis, depending on the strategy and individual fund manager.
