Artisan Partners was founded in 1994 and had $184.4 billion in assets as of Jan. 31, 2026. It provides mutual funds across U.S. markets, international markets, and global markets. These mutual funds are managed by an independent team, which uses a structured investment process and creates a portfolio that differs from market benchmarks. All these factors make each mutual fund an appealing investment option.
