We’re delighted to announce the launch of Investor Solutions. The team comprises over 60 investment professionals with expertise across multiple areas including asset allocation and portfolio construction.

Two keys to a portfolio design process that can fulfill multiple, competing objectives are an adaptable research philosophy and a flexible technology platform. In this paper, Keith R. Collier, CFA, Director of Asset Allocation Research, explains the evolution of the BNY Mellon Investor Solutions approach to strategic asset allocation (SAA) – from the artisanal to the systematic – and how that journey led to the development of a unique robust SAA methodology that can stand the test of time
Our most recent annual 10-Year Capital Markets Assumptions have highlighted a more challenging return environment and the increasing importance of alternatives within a well-diversified portfolio.
Asset owners should identify the best opportunities across both active and passive investment options. In this article, BNY Mellon Investor Solutions describes an approach called Fee Productivity to help guide decision-making around this topic. It’s a framework asset owners can use to evaluate the effectiveness of active investment strategies, after fees, risk and available passive options are taken into account.
Diversity and Inclusion within the field of investment management is a subject of increasing importance. BNY Mellon Investor Solutions strives to be a leader in advocating for Diverse-Owned Investment Management firms. This paper makes observations on the level of demographic disparity in the industry, explores areas that could serve as reasons behind the deviation and explains the framework Investor Solutions has in place to identify Diverse-Owned Investment Managers.
Every year, BNY Mellon Investor Solutions develops capital market return assumptions for approximately 50 asset classes around the world. The assumptions are based on a 10-year investment time horizon and are intended to guide investors in developing their long-term strategic asset allocations.
Today’s institutional investors require strategic asset allocations (SAAs) resilient to long-term uncertainty. The concept of “robust” portfolios that reduce shortfall risk – even when the future doesn’t go entirely as planned – can help address this challenge. In this paper, Keith R. Collier, CFA, Director of Asset Allocation Research, provides an overview of BNY Mellon Investor Solutions’ Robust SAA Design process and highlights specific innovations that differentiate our approach from conventional methods.
COVID-19 and the remote work environment have introduced heightened risks and challenges to investment managers’ operational controls. This warrants more frequent monitoring by operational due diligence teams to assess a manager’s ability to address disruptions and volatility. In this paper, we highlight the key risks to managers and the impact of COVID-19 on the operational due diligence process.
