Learning from pension peers

Nearly all of our innovative pension solutions stem from collaborative work with clients. Our case studies highlight the importance of learning from peers, especially where pension plans are taking the lead on important topics. These case studies demonstrate how the more sophisticated and well-resourced pension plans globally are solving their own challenges, especially when it comes to sustainable investing.

Client case

Customizing a fixed income replication solution

We collaborated with a European pension plan to customize a fixed income solution with their specific investment and sustainability objectives. To avoid the limitations of traditional passive fixed income strategies, we focused on credit quality and low turnover to increase cost efficiency. The final solution was a low tracking error credit portfolio that aligns with benchmark returns, while improving on risk.
