INDUSTRY FOCUS

Institutional Asset Management

Go Beyond the Four Ps

By interviewing your portfolio managers and analysts, we create content that goes beyond the four Ps (people, process, performance, and philosophy) to show how your investment capabilities are truly differentiated.

Across equities, fixed income, and alternative asset classes, we partner with some of the world’s leading bulge-bracket and boutique managers to articulate their views on where markets are headed and how value is being created.

Deep Expertise in Narrow Topics

No asset class is too complex, no market is too emerging, and no strategy is too alternative for our writers. Delivered across white papers, blogs, videos, landing pages, quarterly fund commentaries, webinars, and slide decks, the list of topics we’ve covered includes:

  • Active vs. passive
  • ADRs
  • Asset servicing
  • Blockchain and cryptocurrencies
  • Closed-end funds
  • Credits: private, structured, high-yield, investment-grade
  • Currency management
  • Economic outlook
  • Emerging markets research
  • ESG integration and marketing
  • Event-driven strategies
  • Intermediary distribution
  • Liquid vs. illiquid alternatives
  • Managed futures
  • Monetary policy
  • Outsourced CIO
