Our Enterprise Capital Strategy (ECS) services provide the framework and key analytics to help achieve your financial goals by embracing:
Our enterprise-based framework is designed to meet the differing needs of insurance companies. From globally diversified, multi-product publicly traded companies to U.S.-domiciled, mono-line mutual companies, our framework is built for the insurance industry and can be leveraged to analyze your unique balance sheets and investment portfolios.
Solutions can be developed in Statutory, GAAP and IFRS frameworks, reflecting the incidence of taxes as well as rating agency, regulatory and solvency related risk-based capital considerations. Through optimization, enterprise simulation and stress testing we can get a better picture of your specific investment needs.
Using our proprietary Enterprise Based Asset Allocation™ (EBAA™) process, we tailor our asset allocation recommendations to align with your unique requirements. This process leads to your company’s recommended investment guidelines and investment performance benchmarks. These are based on prospective capital market returns and product margins, their volatilities, correlations, operating and financial leverage and client-specific business constraints and enterprise risk tolerances.

Playing an active role in the overall Client Service team, our Investment Accountants are knowledgeable about each client’s unique needs, enabling them to respond quickly to requests for most investment accounting and reporting information.
Your dedicated Investment Accounting Team facilitates easy access to the answers you need, when you need them. We fully reconcile holdings and transactions to trial balances to confirm reports agree to your general ledger prior to sending, allowing you more time for analysis. Pricing for managed assets is obtained from 3rd party sources, then subject to a rigorous review, resulting in a validated and transparently valued portfolio.
As part of our comprehensive offering in investment accounting services, we provide intuitive, detailed reports, available on managed and unmanaged portfolios, providing you with access to fully consolidated reporting.
