Asset Management Group of Bank of Hawaii

It is a division of Bank of Hawaii, not a separate legal entity. The group operates within the bank's trust department, sharing the bank's charter, balance sheet, and regulatory oversight. This means client assets are managed under a fiduciary framework governed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, with the bank's capital and reputation standing behind the advisory relationship.

No. The group historically constructs portfolios using individual securities — equities, municipal bonds, and corporate debt — within separately managed accounts. It does not market its own line of mutual funds or exchange-traded products, distinguishing it from asset managers that derive revenue from internal fund fees.
