Bureau of Asset Management
Director Ron Giammarino
The Bureau of Asset Management (BAM) was formed in 1990 with two key objectives. First, BAM is to encourage and promote research in the broad range of topics under the theme of "asset management". Second, BAM is to improve the amount and quality of communication between the Sauder School of Business and the business community.
Given the broadest interpretation, asset management covers real assets, financial assets and corporate assets. Members of the Finance, Urban Land Economics, and other Sauder School of Business divisions are actively researching topics in these areas, and the business community would find many of the results of interest.
BAM will carry out this objective through several forums, including "executive briefing sessions", in which highly regarded academics and practitioners share their research results with the business community, and longer round-table discussions involving academics and practitioners, designed to explore important asset management problems and solutions. Seminars with presentations by expert practitioners and academics are also offered. Finally, BAM will provide research support to faculty members to encourage them to carry out research in a broad range of topics in asset management.
In these BAM events, the business community can provide valuable guidance by sharing with the faculty their view of important asset management problems and restrictions.
Initial capital funding to establish the BAM endowment was provided by:
