Top 10 Mutual Funds From the Largest Money Managers

Risk and returns can vary greatly when it comes to investing. The funds themselves can differ substantially in volatility, and investors might be more or less risk-adverse. Proven returns and a money manager you can trust are critical when selecting a mutual fund that brings safe, steady growth.

The biggest money managers got there for a reason. With a history of growth and more assets under management, they are trusted bets when it comes to long-term performance. For instance, Prudential Investment Management boasts more than 135 years of investment experience, and Goldman Sachs Asset Management employs over 2,000 professional advisors to manage assets.

Credio sought to identify the best-performing mutual funds to invest in with each of the 10 largest investment advisors. These investment companies control the highest portion of U.S. assets under management, totaling over $11.67 trillion. Upon identifying the 10 largest money managers, we compared mutual funds at each company to find the best-performing funds based on 10-year load adjusted returns.

For those looking to invest with one of the top money managers for long-term performance, these are the 10 top-performing funds (ordered by money manager total AUM) to consider investing in.
