institutional investors
Professional money managers
Institutional investors are organizations that invest large sums of money on behalf of others—pension funds, mutual funds, insurance companies, endowments, and hedge funds.
They manage pooled capital from many individuals and typically hold significant stakes in companies, giving them substantial influence over corporate governance and market movements.
Institutional investors now own the majority of shares in most large public companies.
