Parametric is a global asset manager that's spent 35 years designing and delivering customized solutions for our clients. We use a systematic, rules-based approach that seeks to deliver transparent, predictable and repeatable outcomes. Our mission is to help institutional investors access efficient market exposures, solve implementation challenges and design multiasset portfolios that respond to their evolving needs. 

 

Diverse solutions for trusted institutions


We’re there when a large corporate plan needs a liquidity solution that doesn’t hinder returns. Or a leading public plan needs to optimize exposures and keep its portfolio aligned with policy. Or a prominent endowment has to address risk issues related to a set of particular investments. Our solutions blend creativity and diligence to deliver the ideas and execution today's investors need to solve their unique challenges.

Key competencies

Derivatives

Add, hedge, and complete exposures that seek capital efficiency

Equities

Fully customizable equity beta in separate accounts

Fixed Income

Custom allocations, index replication, liquidity, and liability/cashflow matching

Solutions for institutional investors


Since our founding, we've crafted a set of specialized solutions that integrate a mix of dynamic creativity and diligent execution. We can tailor that mix for each client across custom and enhanced engineered solutions. Our implementation expertise can give your portfolio the return enhancement and risk mitigation oversight it needs to be efficient. 

Custom Portfolio Solutions

Designed to solve implementation, exposure, and risk-alignment problems; making the portfolio you already have work as intended.

Systematic Alpha & Diversification

Transparent, liquid, research-backed strategies designed to add return and diversification to the total portfolio.

We maximize these capabilities through an unwavering focus on:

Transparency

Frequent, often daily, communication and custom reporting

Efficiency

Systems and processes that drive ideal execution

Risk Optimization

Calibration, inclusion of desired risks, exclusion of undesired risks

There is no guarantee that the investment objectives will be met. Diversification does not eliminate the risk of loss. All investments are subject to risk.

A Total Portfolio Approach: How Liquid Factors Help Unify Risk

A whole-portfolio perspective can reveal insights traditional models miss—but only if risk is analyzed consistently across assets.

Why institutions partner with us


We’re more than our assets under management, a roster of investment capabilities or a long list of names. We’re an asset manager specially equipped to build and deliver creative custom solutions.

Customization at scale

Bespoke portfolios delivered through a systematic, repeatable platform.

Capital Efficiency

Synthetic exposures and overlays may free up capital while maintaining target risk.

Risk Control

We’re an experienced and unified group, not a collection of individual stars, working toward better results.

Partnership Mindset

An extension of your team with direct senior access, not a periodic vendor.
