Common Questions About Consulting for Multi-Asset Managers
Multi-asset managers use strategic asset allocation models that balance return objectives, risk tolerance, and liquidity needs. These models incorporate historical data, forward-looking scenarios, and correlation analysis to optimize allocations across equities, fixed income, private markets, and alternative investments.
Correlation analysis measures how asset classes move relative to each other, helping managers avoid overexposure to investments that perform similarly in market downturns. By identifying and managing these relationships, managers can improve diversification and reduce portfolio volatility.
The most effective approach is to develop detailed cash flow forecasts and pacing models. These tools help align capital deployment and redemption schedules, ensuring liquidity is available for obligations without missing investment opportunities.
Managers benchmark performance by comparing portfolio results to blended indices, custom benchmarks, and peer groups that reflect the mix of asset classes held. This allows for more accurate evaluation of performance relative to both market conditions and strategic goals.
Strong governance frameworks establish clear roles, processes, and oversight mechanisms for investment decisions. This structure promotes transparency, consistency, and accountability, helping managers make disciplined, repeatable choices even in volatile markets.
