What is MercerInsight PST?

MercerInsight PST is a global, online, collaborative consulting software tool designed to help users perform asset allocation and portfolio structuring studies and decisions in a unified framework using mean-variance optimisation. The tool provides a high degree of control over the asset and portfolio characteristics at each stage during its construction.

 

The power of MercerInsight PST lies in its ability to integrate easy to use software with our intellectual capital in a seamless manner.

 

The software can be used with either your own proprietary assumptions, on capital markets and portfolio alpha returns or with Mercer's assumptions, providing you with direct access to Mercer's intellectual capital.

Who uses MercerInsight PST?

MercerInsight PST is used both internally and externally by capital markets participants looking to create optimal portfolios for clients. The user can create efficient frontiers and/or develop total return based (including alpha and fee assumptions).

How can it benefit you?

  • Model future investment scenarios using Mercer's intellectual capital

  • Develop models and create efficient frontiers against which existing or proposed asset allocation strategies can be compared

  • Develop total return based models (i.e. include alpha and fees in the analysis)

  • Asset model using target returns (risk adjusted or absolute)
