Definition: Asset lifecycle management involves all of the practices asset managers employ to deal with a financial asset (whether a specific investment or an entire portfolio) throughout its lifecycle. This lifecycle typically starts with acquisition and ends with a sale. Asset lifecycle management practices may include risk management, performance optimization, and regulatory compliance, among others.
Example: One example of asset lifecycle management is risk management, which refers to analyzing an investment’s potential risks and rewards in order to keep the two in balance. Some risk management strategies include avoidance, retention, and loss prevention.
