Parametric Portfolio Associates

Cross-Asset Portfolio Solutions

Parametric Cross-Asset Portfolio Solutions (CAPS) enables institutional investors to take control of their portfolios through accessing a comprehensive, flexible, and customizable platform across a full spectrum of investment and risk-management solutions.

Markets are dynamic. Views can shift. Circumstances may change. How nimbly can your portfolio react? For many institutional investors, once they’ve allocated assets, adjusting exposures can be time-consuming, operationally cumbersome, and disruptive to both staff and the portfolio itself.

Investing entails risks, and there can be no assurance that investors will achieve profits or avoid incurring losses.

Consultation

Addressing portfolio needs
Ongoing monitoring

Investment staff will take time at the outset of the relationship—and on an ongoing basis—to understand the portfolio structure and goals of the investor to help identify ways to improve portfolio and operational efficiency.

We work with each client to establish program guidelines and trading agreements, including both listed and OTC facilities.

Our solution addresses portfolio needs across equities, fixed income, risk management, and the total portfolio.

Parametric independently confirms, verifies, and reconciles all trades, manages all collateral flows, and monitors associated custodial accounts. In addition, we provide daily reporting of all exposure positions, which can be expanded into fund-wide exposure and risk analytics reporting if desired.
