Implemented investment solutions



Outsourcing investment activities enables trustees to focus on strategic pension issues

Today's trustees demand more from their investment arrangements. Many now see the advantages of using a fiduciary management or delegated consulting approach.

 

Mercer's implemented investment solutions can provide several major benefits to trustees, including:

  • Enhanced performance
  • Better governance
  • Better management of risk
  • Greater cost savings
  • Improved efficiency
  • Faster decision making to exploit market opportunities

 

Our range of implemented investment solutions allow trustees to focus their time and skills where it matters most and address three principal investment decision making areas that we believe all trustees need to tackle:

  • Strategic risk budgeting
  • Selecting the asset classes to use with the risk budget framework
  • Selecting the managers to invest assets within the chosen classes
