Northern Trust has enhanced its asset-liability reporting solutions for pension funds, offering them more insight in to their own risk exposure.
Fund managers will have access to a cross-balance sheet view of their assets and liabilities, and will be able to monitor their portfolio’s risks and performance.
With analytics from RiskFirst’s web-based platform PFaroe, Northern Rock will offer a global operating platform. Pension fund clients will be able to profile assets and liabilities in the same network, allowing for direct comparison and helping facilitate investment decisions.
Matthew Seymour, managing director of RiskFirst, said: “Northern Trust has an exceptional reputation for providing customized and innovative solutions, and we are delighted to work with them to enhance their asset-liability risk analytics capabilities.”
Northern Trust’s integrated risk management platform also offers data loading, position maintenance and asset modelling, as well as data storage, a reporting portal and a team of investment risk consultants.
Ian Castledine, global head of investment risk and compliance product at Northern Trust, said: “Pension funds are increasingly looking for tools that enable them to view their assets and liabilities holistically, rather than in isolation.”
He added: “Our enhanced solution adds significant granularity to our liability modelling capabilities, enabling our clients to have a far better understanding of their asset-liability position.”
