History and Business of Company (this information may include date of incorporation) | |
Janus Capital Group Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, "Janus" or the "Company") sponsor, market and provide investment advisory, distribution and administrative services primarily to mutual funds in both domestic and international markets. The majority of Janus' revenues are largely dependent on the total value and composition of assets under management, primarily consisting of domestic and international equity and debt securities. Accordingly, fluctuations in the financial markets, relative investment performance, net flows and changes in the composition of assets under management are all factors that have a direct effect on the Company's operating results. As of December 31, 2003, the Company managed $151.5 billion in assets across multiple investment disciplines. Janus' strategy is centered on developing "best of breed" investment management across multiple investment disciplines, developed internally and through acquisition. Janus has long been recognized for growth equity investing, beginning with the launch of the Janus Fund in 1969. Over the last few years, Janus began to expand its product offerings, adding risk-managed products with the acquisition of Enhanced Investment Technologies, LLC ("INTECH"), and value products through investments in Bay Isle Financial LLC ("Bay Isle") and Perkins, Wolf, McDonnell and Company, LLC ("PWM"), and a strategic alliance with Vontobel Asset Management, Inc. ("Vontobel"). The diverse lineup of products in various investment disciplines offered by Janus includes growth, core/blend, international, value and risk-managed equity funds, as well as specialty fixed income and money market funds. This business model attempts to leverage a single Janus brand and global distribution network and, most importantly, bring greater diversity to Janus' product offerings that may ultimately help to insulate the Company from market fluctuations as investment styles and disciplines shift in and out of favor. |
