Amundi SGR follows a multi-style investment approach designed to suit the different risk and return profiles of their clients. The firm makes investment decisions based on technical and fundamental research sourced from the Credit Agricole research team, providing products specifically developed for the Italian market. Their formula funds leverage the group's structured financial engineering capabilities.

Amundi Deutschland offers a deep understanding of the investment universe of both passive and active strategies, including: alpha focused portfolios (bonds, equities, multi-asset); smart-beta and factor-based approaches; and asset-based investments (real estate, private equity, infrastructure). The firm specializes in local markets, conducting in-house research for local investments, while benefiting from the global position of their parent company. Their investment process is research driven and comprises quantitative research, active portfolio management and fundamental analysis. Asset allocation aims to optimize portfolio risk/return levels. Amundi Deutschland’s tactical and strategic asset allocation decision making process follows a quantitative approach. Once assets have been allocated fund managers engage in bottom-up stock picking, which they base on in-house fundamental and qualitative research.

Amundi Ireland follows a bottom-up, research-driven investment process combined with top-down analysis to capture macroeconomic trends and develop intrinsic valuation measures based on proprietary research.
