Celebrating a Record-breaking Year for Volunteer Contributions in 2025

The Institute of Asset Management (IAM) is delighted to celebrate all the volunteers who contributed to the Institute’s success in 2025. 

Ursula Bryan, CEO, said, “During 2025, we had over 750 people volunteering with the Institute from over 40 countries, with around a third of these volunteers involved in two or more volunteer activities.  Every day, I am humbled by the passion, commitment and time our volunteers dedicate to support the advancement of our discipline and the development of the IAM resources that benefit both our members and our wider asset management community. It is a privilege to work with you, and I give a heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you.  Your contributions are valued and appreciated across the Institute and beyond.” 

As a token of appreciation, volunteers will soon receive an IAM Volunteer 2025 e-badge. This badge serves as a symbol of recognition for their significant contributions and we are encouraging volunteers to display their badge proudly in e-signatures and on social media platforms. If you share it on LinkedIn, we would love for you to tag us @The Institute of Asset Management so we can celebrate with you. 

Keeping track of over 750 volunteers is an enormous task, and some people may have moved on from their organizations or changed their contact details. Anyone who volunteered with the IAM in 2025 who doesn’t receive a letter and e-badge should contact office@theiam.org so that we can update our records and make sure you are recognized. 

At our IAM Global Conference being held June 17-18, 2025 we will be celebrating the collective achievements of our volunteers.  Why not join the celebrations in person and book an early bird ticket:

We are also collecting volunteer stories to share on our website, social media, and at the IAM Global Conference. If you would like to tell us what volunteering means to you through a short message or video, along with a photo and biography, please send your submission to office@theIAM.org. Your story matters, and we would love to celebrate it
