Rich Nuzum CFA, President, Investments & Retirement at Mercer:

“We are seeing a direct correlation between the challenges of the pandemic and investors’ interest in our investment solutions.  The pandemic brought on a liquidity crisis and extreme market volatility.  Although equity markets have since recovered to reach new highs, long-term real and nominal interest rates remain near all-time historical lows, challenging investors’ ability to meet their long-term goals.

We believe better performance has been achieved by institutional investors whose governance has handled rebalancing trades, de-risking and re-risking trades, despite the extreme market volatility earlier this year, and by investors who had capacity to consider opportunities such as high yield and private debt at the depths of the market downturn.  Many asset owners are recognizing their governance didn’t succeed across all these fronts, and are looking to access outsourced chief investment officer (OCIO) investment solutions for assistance before they are tested in this way again.”

 

Mick Dempsey, Global Head, Investment solutions/OCIO services at Mercer:

“Portfolios today require higher levels of diversification, requiring more asset classes, more investment managers, and overall, more operational management to contend with.  This increased complexity, coupled with challenging market conditions and fee pressures, also means investors are looking for a more dynamic approach to managing portfolios. All of these requirements are driving interest in investment solutions across our client base and the broader market.

As governance has been tested this year, we have been seeing investors across the institutional marketplace such as pension schemes, insurance companies and other financial intermediaries, as well as not-for-profit entities, adopt investment solutions to support the operational management of their investment portfolios.”

 

Janet Li, Wealth Business Leader, Asia at Mercer:

“This growing demand for OCIO investment solutions has been particularly evident in Asia.  We are now experiencing market volatility on par with the 2008 global financial crisis. Slow growth and thin margins are the result of widespread economic uncertainty following the COVID-19 outbreak, and current headwinds are only expected to continue, if not grow stronger. As Asian institutional investors examine their funds’ performance and practices including governance in light of the prolonged uncertain market environment, many have been newly drawn to consider the OCIO route.

OCIO can be compelling to shops that seek diversity in portfolios and highly rated managers but face challenges with in-house resources or capabilities. In-house teams are even more stretched with the COVID-19 situation where budgets have been cut and costs are on the chopping block. The pressure for better risk-adjusted returns and the cost savings a delegated investment framework may generate are key drivers of demand for OCIO investment solutions.”
