Companies	Position	Start
Oppenheimer Investment Management LLC Oppenheimer Investment Management LLC Investment ManagersFinance OIM manages fixed-income accounts with various investment strategies. For each strategy, the investment process begins with an understanding of the client’s needs and objectives. Security selection is bottom-up and focuses on optimal bond selection. In selecting core holdings, portfolio managers look for higher yields than the strategy’s benchmark, shorter maturities, stable fundamentals, and long holding periods. The portfolio manager’s decision to sell a security involves many factors, which include whether the risk or return becomes unfavorable, an attractive alternative is available, deteriorating credit fundamentals, portfolio balancing is required, and client-specific needs.
