As an organization, NAAIM engages in numerous activities to promote active management and further the professional development of its members, by acquiring, preserving, and disseminating valuable information through programs such as our annual Founders Award Paper Writing Competition, the Exposure Index, NAAIM’s Indicator Wall, and the Active Investing Strategy Competition.

NAAIM’s commitment to supporting the growth and success of its members, along with the diverse range of resources provided, makes it an essential platform for investment managers seeking to enhance their knowledge, network with industry peers, and stay at the forefront of active investment Management. Below are additional articles, competitions, and resources for our members.

Exposure Index

The NAAIM Exposure Index represents the average exposure to US Equity markets reported by our members. The primary goal of most active managers is to manage the risk/reward relationship of the stock market and to stay in tune with what the market is doing at any given time.

As the name indicates, the NAAIM Exposure Index provides insight into the actual adjustments active risk managers have made to client accounts over the past two weeks.
