Discretionary Investment Management

  

It's up to the discretion of the investment manager where to put the money. That's all this term means.

If the paperwork or indenture says so, the manager can bet everything on 17 red in Vegas and...pray. Or they can put everything in $20s inside a Serta. It's their call. That's it.
