Understanding the difference

PAMM vs MAM — which is right for you?

Both solutions allow a professional money manager to trade multiple client accounts from a single master account. The difference lies in how trades and profits are allocated.

PAMM

Percentage Allocation Management Module

Trades and profits are distributed proportionally across all investor sub-accounts based on their percentage share of the total pool.

Profits and losses distributed proportionally to each investor's capital share
Ideal for managers with large pools of retail investors
Automated allocation — no manual intervention required
Full transparency — investors can view real-time performance
Investors can join or exit the PAMM pool at defined intervals
Performance fees charged automatically at each settlement period

Best for: Retail fund managers managing pooled capital from multiple smaller investors seeking passive exposure to professional trading strategies.

MAM

Multi-Account Manager

Trades are allocated across sub-accounts using flexible allocation methods — by lot size, percentage, or equity — giving the manager more granular control.

Multiple allocation methods: by lot, percentage of equity, or equal ratio
Manager can treat each sub-account differently based on risk profile
Partial close and individual sub-account override capabilities
Suitable for institutional clients with diverse mandates
No forced synchronisation — investors retain individual account control
Full audit trail per sub-account for compliance and reporting

Best for: Institutional money managers, family offices, and professional traders managing segregated accounts for high-net-worth or institutional clients.

Earning as a manager

Invest with a professional. Stay in control.

As an investor in a PAMM or MAM account managed through Absel Markets, you retain full ownership of your capital and can monitor every trade in real time — with no access given to the manager over your funds.

Your capital is held in your own segregated sub-account at Absel Markets. The money manager can only trade on your behalf — they cannot deposit from or withdraw to external accounts.

Full Transparency

View every trade placed by the manager in real time. Access full trade history, P&L statements, and performance reports at any time from your investor portal.

Capital Protection

Your funds are held in your own sub-account. The manager has no ability to withdraw your funds — only to trade. All client capital is fully segregated per FSC requirements.

Flexible Exit

Withdraw your capital at the end of each defined redemption period. No forced long-term lock-ins unless you agree to specific terms with your money manager.

Performance-Based Fees Only

With performance fee structures, you only pay the manager when your account is profitable — ensuring interests are fully aligned between you and your money manager.

Important Risk Notice — Managed Accounts

You may lose some or all of your invested capital. Absel Markets does not endorse, recommend, or guarantee the performance of any money manager on its platform. All investment decisions are made at your own risk. Please read the full Risk Disclosure Statement before investing.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

PAMM (Percentage Allocation Management Module) distributes trades and profits proportionally across all investor sub-accounts based on each investor's percentage share of the total pool. MAM (Multi-Account Manager) gives the manager more flexibility — trades can be allocated by lot size, percentage of equity, or a custom ratio, allowing different risk profiles per investor. PAMM is generally simpler and better suited to retail investor pools, while MAM is preferred for institutional and HNW clients requiring individual account management.

Investor withdrawals are governed by the redemption schedule set by the money manager when configuring their PAMM or MAM account. Common redemption periods are weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. Managers can set lock-up periods to protect their strategy from mid-cycle disruption. Outside of lock-up periods, investors can request a full or partial withdrawal in accordance with the terms agreed at account opening.

No. A money manager registered with Absel Markets has trading access only to your sub-account — they cannot initiate withdrawals, transfers, or deposits to or from your account. All withdrawals must be requested by the account holder directly through the Absel Markets client portal and are processed in accordance with our standard withdrawal procedures.

The minimum investment amount is set by each individual money manager, subject to Absel Markets' minimum account deposit of USD 5000 for managed accounts. Money managers may set higher minimums depending on their strategy and target investor profile. All minimum investment requirements are disclosed to investors before account linking.

Performance fees are calculated at the end of each settlement period based on the net profit generated in the investor's sub-account since the last fee collection or since the high-water mark was established. The high-water mark ensures that the manager is only paid on net new profits — if a sub-account is in drawdown from a previous period, no performance fee is charged until the previous peak is recovered. Fees are automatically deducted and credited to the manager's account.

Absel Markets does not require a minimum verified track record to register as a money manager, though we do conduct a thorough KYC and onboarding review. We strongly recommend that managers provide a documented performance history and strategy description to build investor confidence. New managers may initially manage a smaller pool and expand as their track record develops.
