Investment Management in RCBC Online

An Investment Management Account (IMA) is a flexible fund management arrangement that allows clients to invest their funds in a wide range of financial instruments representing different asset types. Several investment assets can be held under one umbrella IMA.

IMAs are managed by the Trust and Investments Group of RCBC (RCBC TIG). Once an IMA is opened, its management is assigned to a relationship or portfolio manager who shall oversee the investment activities of the account.

There are two (2) main types of IMAs: Discretionary and Non-Discretionary. (1)In a DISCRETIONARY IMA, RCBC TIG shall have discretion to select specific investment instruments subject to a pre-agreed Investment Policy Statement which is established upon account opening. (2) In a NON-DISCRETIONARY IMA, RCBC TIG will have NO DISCRETION in the selection of the investment assets that the account will invest in. All investment dispositions are done upon SPECIFIC AUTHORIZATION of the client. The client will give instructions for each investment transaction and will receive a confirmation from RCBC-TIG after the same has been executed. * Only NON-DISCRETIONARY IMAs can be opened online via the RCBC Digital website.
