TD Asset Management launched its first mutual fund, the TD Mortgage Fund, in 1973. It would grow to add more funds and expand to offer $USD options to its investors, establishing institutional business by 1990. The 1990s would be filled with a number of accomplishments, including its first real return bond fund, first health sciences fund, and first entertainment and communications fund. TD Asset Management would hit $10 billion in total assets under management by 1995 and open its TD Managed Asset Program in 1998, one of the first professionally managed portfolios for mutual funds in Canada. The company would acquire Canada Trust at the turn of the century, become fund company of the year in Canada for 2004, and hit $50 billion total assets under management in 2008, more than quadrupling its managed assets in a decade. Thanks to its impressive growth and expansion, it would be named the fastest growing money manager in Canada in 2010. Currently the company has over $100 billion in retail mutual fund assets with a total of over $330 billion managed by TD Asset Management. The company employs 327 people to take care of its over 2 million investors in its client base. Its portfolio managers are split into its Fixed Income team and Equity team, with the Chief Investment Officer Bruce Cooper heading the equity team. The two teams focus its investments in their respective markets and also launches and manages balanced mutual funds and hedge funds for its clients. The company is based in Toronto and has additional offices spread across North America. Although investment companies and high net worth individuals make up the majority of its clients, TD Asset Management also caters to governments, group RRSP, pension funds, charities, small businesses, endowments, and foundations. Some of its notable mutual funds include the TD Health Science Fund and TD Canadian Core Plus Bond Fund, both of which have won awards.
