Problems we solve

Making Complex Decisions Simpler, Outcomes More Certain

Pensions and investments involve some of the most consequential decisions that organisations and individuals ever face — and they rarely come with straightforward answers. We exist to make those decisions clearer, better and more certain in their outcomes. For trustees and sponsors of defined benefit schemes, we help navigate funding complexity, manage risk, meet evolving governance standards and determine the right moment and structure for risk transfer to an insurer. For employers and defined contribution trustees, we help design pension and benefit arrangements that genuinely work for employees today and in the future, including through emerging models such as Collective Defined Contribution. For Local Government Pension Scheme funds, we help manage risk, meet long-term funding and investment objectives and implement change efficiently. For investors across all segments, we provide the independent research, responsible investment strategy and stewardship support needed to build resilient portfolios aligned to their obligations and ambitions. And for financial services organisations, we apply data science and digital innovation to drive better customer engagement and outcomes through technology. At every level, we address the challenge that sits beneath all of these: how to make complex, high-stakes decisions that have a real and lasting impact on the financial futures of millions of people.
