For almost 80 years, Pioneer Investments has been a leading innovator in the investment management industry. The history of Pioneer Investments began in 1928 when investing legend, Philip L. Carret, then a young journalist working for the business publication Barron’s, founded the Pioneer Fund™, the third oldest mutual fund in the United States.

Carret's idea continues in the funds of Pioneer Investments. The investement decisions of our portfolio managers rely on extensive fundamental and quantitative analysis, as well as on the continuing search for well-managed companies with strong products and solid growth potential.
