RiskFirst and Insight partner to provide improved investment fund modelling and analytics to the UK DB pensions industry
Insight Investment, one of the world’s largest global asset management companies, and financial technology company, RiskFirst, are joining forces to significantly improve ease of fund modelling for the UK defined benefit (DB) pensions market. Insight will upload data and characteristics of its LDI pooled funds and its buy-and-maintain funds into RiskFirst’s PFaroe modelling system, making them available for use across RiskFirst’s UK client base of consultants and pension plans.
RiskFirst’s clients will be able to easily incorporate Insight Investment funds – in which they may already invest or are considering investing – in a broad range of analyses, delivering detailed information to their fingertips and removing the need for funds to be set up individually. At the same time, Insight will be able to provide accurately modelled fund data directly to multiple existing and prospective clients, reducing duplicate uploading to separate client systems.
Simon Robinson, Head of Product Management, RiskFirst, says: “We are pleased that the power and potential of PFaroe as an innovative and collaborative industry platform continues to grow. By working with Insight, we are transforming the way in which our clients can view and analyse funds, creating a central point of access that improves transparency, convenience and efficiency – thereby delivering significant added value to their businesses and investment strategies.”
Joanna Howley, Head of Pooled Solutions, Insight Investment, comments: “Providing detailed risk and cashflow data on a range of investment funds used by mutual clients for risk hedging and cashflow management through PFaroe allows clients to more easily check they have the optimal investments to suit their needs. We see this creating an efficient, effective framework for fund accessibility, modelling and analysis.”
