For investment solutions that aim to deliver your desired outcomes, access our innovative range of multi-asset products and services to complete your portfolio needs.

Each of these strategies is an effective investment tool in its own right. When individual investments are carefully combined to create a diversified, outcome-oriented, multi-asset institutional investment program, their true potential is unlocked.

Asset classes

Alternative Investments

We work tirelessly to ensure we identify the most appropriate managers for the respective fund investment objective. We then combine them and use dynamic implementation techniques to effectively and efficiently manage targeted strategy exposures. Our approach provides flexibility and highly opportunistic portfolio management.

Equities

U.S. equity investments invest in U.S. companies. International and global equity investments invest globally, focused on developed countries outside the home market.

Fixed Income

Fixed income invests in debt instruments that provide a return in the form of fixed periodic payments and the eventual return of principal at maturity.

Liability-Driven Investments

These are multi-manager investments aimed at providing investors with the potential to reduce DB pension-funded status volatility through exposure to high-quality, mostly corporate bonds that closely match those found in discount curves used to value U.S. pension liabilities.

Multi-Asset

Multi-asset investments offer a convenient way for investors to diversify a portfolio by combining funds and separate accounts investing in various combinations of U.S. and non-U.S. stocks, bonds, and real assets into one fund.

Real Assets

Our real assets are structured to expose institutional investors to core real assets through an actively managed portfolio.

Target Date and Target Risk Investments

Target Date investments offer premixed portfolios designed to simplify the asset allocation process for retirement plan participants. Investors typically choose the target date fund with the year in the fund name that is closest to the year they plan to retiree (assumes retirement at age 65).

Target Risk funds are balanced portfolios offering a well-diversified investment program in a single fund.
