Schroders is a global asset manager. It invests money for pension funds, insurers, sovereign wealth funds, charities, family offices, and individual investors through active investment funds, discretionary portfolios, and wealth management services. The company makes money mainly by charging management fees for overseeing client assets and, in some cases, performance-based fees.

Its core job is to pick investments and manage risk across stocks, bonds, private assets, and other markets. Clients hire Schroders because they want a specialist to run money on their behalf, build portfolios to match a stated objective, and handle research, trading, and ongoing portfolio oversight. Schroders also runs wealth management businesses that serve high-net-worth clients who want tailored advice and portfolio management.

What makes Schroders different is its role in the financial system as a steward of other people’s capital rather than a lender or insurer. Its business depends on trust, long-term relationships, and investment skill, so the firm’s value comes from attracting assets and keeping clients over time. That makes it a service business tied to financial markets, with revenue driven by the amount and type of money it manages.
