We understand the complex challenges pension schemes face
Drawing on 50 years’ experience in building and managing sophisticated pension portfolios, we apply ourselves to understanding each plan sponsor’s or pension scheme’s goals and helping them realize meaningful results.
Why Cambridge Associates?
We build custom portfolios that help drive better outcomes
Each pension scheme’s portfolio is custom built and managed to align with their scheme’s unique circumstances and goals.
Tapping our specialised expertise in pension investment strategy, liability hedging and alternative investing, as well as our global manager relationships, we employ a results-focused approach across the total portfolio that prudently maximizes alpha.
What We Do
We have teams dedicated to your success
Each client’s dedicated investment team offers deep resources and extensive knowledge. Replicating an in-house investment office, this team is led by a senior investor and backed by experienced investment professionals, including specialists in specific asset classes and other practitioners, such as actuaries, as needed.
Through partnering with pension schemes directly and dynamically, we strive to ensure an exceptional client experience – and optimal outcomes for each plan.
