About MAIA
We are an exclusive multi-manager specialist with over 85 years’ experience in this field, previously managing award winning funds within large investment houses.
Our aim is to actively manage your clients’ investment portfolios, leaving you free to perform the job of a financial adviser rather than an investment manager.
With the requirements of in-house investment management growing ever more complex for IFA’s, it makes sense to outsource to a specialist, allowing you to make more efficient use of your time.

MAIA is a signatory of the United Nation’s Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). As institutional investors, we have a duty to act in the best long-term interests of our clients. We recognise that applying these Principles may better align investors with broader objectives of society.
1. What is the PRI?
The Principles for Responsible Investment were developed by an international group of institutional investors reflecting the increasing relevance of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues to investment practices. The process was convened by the United Nations Secretary-General.
2. How does it work?
The PRI works with its international network of signatories to put the six Principles for Responsible Investment into practice. Its goals are to understand the investment implications of ESG issues and to support signatories in integrating these issues into investment and ownership decisions.
The six Principles for Responsible Investment are a voluntary and aspirational set of investment principles that offer a menu of possible actions for incorporating ESG issues into investment practice.
