Empowering Arizona’s Investment Industry

AFMA’s Mission: Nurturing Arizona's fund manager ecosystem to ignite unprecedented growth in the state's investment management industry.

 

Advocacy, Promotion and Connections for Arizona-Based Fund Managers

The key to transforming Arizona’s investment landscape is nurturing an ecosystem of private fund managers. As this ecosystem grows, there will be a flywheel effect and the investment community will get exponentially larger and more sophisticated.

If Arizona can capture just 1% of the private alternatives market ($9.8 Trillion), that would result in approximately $7 Billion coming back into the local economy annually.
