This paper considers the principle-agent conflict problem in a continuous-time delegated asset management model when the investor and the fund manager are all risk-averse with risk sensitivity coefficients γ f  and  γ m , respectively. Suppose that the investor entrusts his money to the fund manager. The return of the investment is determined by the manager’s effort level and incentive strategy, but the benefit belongs to the investor. In order to encourage the manager to work hard, the investor will determine the manager’s salary according to the terminal income. This is a stochastic differential game problem, and the distribution of income between the manager and the investor is a key point to be solved in the custody model. The uncertain form of the incentive strategy implies that the problem is different from the classical stochastic optimal control problem. In this paper, we first express the investor’s incentive strategy in term of two auxiliary processes and turn this problem into a classical one. Then, we employ the dynamic programming principle to solve the problem.

This paper develops a continuous-time model to study the widely used investment mandates in the institutional asset management industry. In this paper, just like He and Xiong (2013), we suppose that the asset management industry has a two-layered incentive structure, and fund families charging investors fixed management fees while compensating individual fund managers based on fund performance. Different from He and Xiong (2013), we suppose that the fund family aims to select an optimal incentive strategy to maximize its terminal benefits, while the fund manager needs to select the optimal effort level and the optimal investment portfolio to maximize his terminal net discounted compensation in a continuous-time model. By using dynamic programming principle and stochastic differential game theory, the optimal strategies and value functions of both sides are derived. At last, numerical studies are provided to illustrate the effects of all the parameters on the optimal strategies. The result reveals that the optimal incentive mechanism will redistribute both the benefit of the fund families and the cost of the fund managers’ effort.

The chapter explains in detail the maintenance management model (MMM) taken as a reference for the development of the book. The chapter is based on the eight phases of the MMM. The first three blocks determine the effectiveness of the management; the following blocks assure the same efficiency and continuous improvement in the following way: Blocks 4 and 5 include actions for the planning and scheduling of maintenance, including, of course, the capacity of planning of department of maintenance. Blocks 6 and 7 are dedicated to the evaluation and control of the maintenance and the cost of assets throughout their life cycle. This chapter of introduction briefly summarizes the process and the reference frame necessary for the implementation of the MMM. This chapter also presents the relationship between the eight phases of the maintenance management model proposed and the general requirements of the asset management standard ISO 55000 to show how the gradual implementation of the MMM largely covers the requirements of the standard ISO 55000.

The purpose of this chapter, is to provide a Maintenance and Reliability Management Model for the project: Design and Construction of the Third Set of Locks in the Panama Canal, with the approach of the process of asset management optimization. A practical vision of the maintenance and reliability management process and framework is presented with the idea of: Structuring the maintenance management process by grouping management activities within a series of so-called management building blocks; Structuring the framework grouping techniques that can be used to support decisions to be taken within each of these building block. This chapter presents not only a process but also the framework and techniques to manage and improve maintenance and reliability effectiveness and efficiency. This report will be used to assist different plant teams to elaborate the optimal strategies for maintenance and inspection for the assets, specified for the project: Third Set of Locks in the Panama Canal.

An asset management company must replace the manager of its two signature mutual funds, who is about to retire. Two candidates have been short-listed. The management team is divided and cannot decide which of the two candidates would make the better mutual fund manager. The retiring manager presents a linear regression model to examine success factors of mutual fund managers. This linear regression is the starting point for the subsequent analysis.Application of linear regression analysis to analyze the performance of mutual fund managers.

All sectors are facing an increasing competitive situation, therefore economic analyzes are increasing in importance in asset management. The market dynamics tends to a continuous improvement. The objectives of profitability and life cycle costs have a significant influence on the strategy of assets and strategic decisions in the organization, so it is important to analyze capex and opex to be able to define the strategies to take. What happens when we are in a medium or small company? Generally, the answer to this is that asset management only takes place on large companies. In this research, the application of an international standard model, such as ISO 55000 in asset management, for medium and small companies, becomes relevant. This standard covers a whole concept of control, monitoring and improvement, which explains what should be done. The application of a management model based on the standard allows meeting specific requirements and characteristics. Our conclusion is that any entity, regardless of its size should establish a strategy in its asset management and ISO 55000 could help them in developing that strategy.

There are several variants of the management and development models that incorporate the concept of waqf productive and consumptive waqf. In the form of management and development of productive waqf property is manifested in the form of public refueling station (SPBU). This research is a descriptive qualitative study aimed to describe the management and development of waqf property of the Great Mosque of Semarang, which has an area of 119.1270 hectares of waqf land, particularly those managed to SPBU. The results showed that SPBU of Great Mosque of Semarang has succeeded in realizing the asset management model and the development of the productive waqf. SPBU of Great Mosque of Semarang have managed to make a significant contribution to the Great Mosque of Semarang and able to provide good service for consumers, as it provides the fuel needed by motorists generally. SPBU of Great Mosque of Semarang is also equipped with various facilities, such as prayer rooms, toilets, filling water and aeration, ATM, rest area, minimarket, clinic, car washbusiness

Maintenance is one of the main stages to deliver business outcomes from physical assets over their life cycles. However, as unexpected events and performance may occur in maintenance management, organizations shall be aware of how to address them as well as other opportunities for improvement. Accordingly, this chapter intends to present an improvement framework for maintenance management. The first two sections provide an introduction to maintenance management improvement and its interface with the ISO 55000 series for asset management and the maintenance management model (MMM). Then, the proposed framework and its activities for improvement in maintenance management are discussed in the third section. The fourth section addresses an overview of the main RCA techniques to support the framework implementation. Finally, a hydroelectric power plant case study is discussed to demonstrate the framework in a real operational context.
