/EIN News/ -- VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leading private market asset management firm, Amur Capital Management Corporation, surpassed the $1-billion mark in consolidated assets under management (AUM) in 2023 as it continues to expand its business in the mortgage investment corporations (MICs) industry.

"Reaching the $1-billion AUM mark is a testament to the trust our investors have placed in Amur Capital and the hard work of our talented investment team," said Arif Mulji, Chief Executive Officer of Amur Financial Group.

The firm also takes a prudent approach to providing consistent returns balanced with capital preservation through its longstanding risk and portfolio management protocol that has been employed for over 40 years.
