Discover the Global Leaders Handbook

2025 Global Leaders Handbook

The global investment environment in 2025 is shaped by historic contrasts: rising geopolitical tension and economic uncertainty sit alongside some of the most transformative innovation and capital expenditure cycles in modern history. While macro risks multiply — from trade fragmentation to interest rate divergence and political volatility — so do the opportunities, notably in AI, infrastructure, and global reindustrialisation.

To support institutional investors navigating this new reality, Global Fund Search presents the 2025 edition of the Global Leaders Handbook. This publication brings together leading managers in listed equity and fixed income, selected based on institutional demand and relevance in current search activity.

Our aim is not to predict the future, but to provide allocators with a structured, comparable view of managers prepared to meet it. In a more uncertain world, discernment matters more than ever.
