Company History

About us…

TreeTop Asset Management is a leader in the management of global funds invested in equities and convertible bonds.

Equity investment provides a superior long-term performance to the average returns of other asset classes but requires high performance management with experience and an entrepreneurial spirit. Each fund promoted by TreeTop Asset Management has a manager or team of managers who freely chooses its investments and is responsible for them.

Beginning of 2012, TreeTop Asset Management manages about one billion Euros, placed in a small number of investment funds.

TreeTop Asset Management has invested alongside its investors in the funds that it manages. The result is that each investment decision that we make affects us as much as our investors.
