Baron Funds In Stock Futures Funds Directory

 

Ron Baron founded Baron Capital Management, a registered investment adviser, in 1982 to make his unique investment style available to individual and institutional investors. In its early years, the firm managed private accounts and sold investment research to financial institutions. The growth of assets under management and increasing recognition of Barons success lead to the introduction of an additional registered investment advisor, BAMCO, Inc. to manage mutual funds. Baron Asset Fund, our first mutual fund, was established in 1987. Initially, Baron Asset Fund invested mainly in small and mid-cap companies. Over time, however, given Ron Barons long-term investment strategy and the overall growth of the Fund, many of the smaller holdings grew to be mid-sized and larger growth businesses. In 2007, the shareholders of the Fund approved a change in strategy and today Baron Asset Fund, co-managed by Ron Baron and Andrew Peck, primarily invests in mid-sized growth companies. Baron Growth Fund was launched in 1995. Ron Baron has managed Baron Growth Fund from its inception. This Fund invests principally in small-cap growth companies.
