What is the definition of Institutional Investors?
Institutional Investors are organizations that invest in large quantities. This usually refers to insurance companies, investment houses, pension funds and banks that buy and sell a large number of securities and other investment instruments.
An institutional investor gathers buying and negotiating power by pooling financial contributions from a lot of people. The institutional investor makes the investment in behalf of those who entrusted their investments to them - be it by premiums, pension fund collections and other kinds of investments. Because of the size of the funds they are handling, institutional investors are able to have a diverse portfolio in order for them to build a strong financial position.
The institutional investors account for over two-thirds of the trades in any one point in time.
