Mercer Investments

Mercer describes its practice as a full discretionary OCIO service, taking responsibility for asset allocation, manager selection, and risk management on behalf of institutional and nonprofit portfolios while the client's own board retains policy and governance authority. The firm positions this OCIO offering within a broader employee benefits and investment consulting platform and states that it serves pension, endowment, foundation, and insurance clients.[Firm website]

The firm's own recent updates point to changes within its investment leadership ranks and the creation of a dedicated senior role focused on private markets and alternatives, developments the firm frames as part of a broader push to expand its capabilities in that area.[Firm website]
