Investment mandates are specific instructions or guidelines that dictate how a fund manager or advisor must allocate and manage assets on behalf of clients. These mandates define permissible asset classes, risk tolerances, liquidity requirements, and performance objectives. They ensure that investments align with the client’s financial goals and regulatory constraints. Strict adherence to these rules is legally required.
