Our History

Karpus Investment Management was founded in 1986 by George Karpus, formerly a Senior Trust Investment Officer at a large commercial bank. With ownership by employees, our company has grown to include a management team that brings broad experience in investment management, client services, and operations.

On October 1, 2020, Karpus Management, Inc., doing business as Karpus Investment Management, completed a merger with City of London Investment Group PLC (“CLIG”). KIM is a wholly owned subsidiary of CLIG.

We manage approximately $4.0 billion (as of 9/30/2024) in assets for institutions and individuals. For more than 35 years, we’ve been helping clients reach their goals in bull markets, bear markets, and everything in between.
