An important aspect of a Portfolio Manager's role is to provide visibility into the work we do on behalf of the participating PortCo to the sponsor, thereby avoiding unexpected surprises at the sponsor level. Additionally, the Portfolio Manager collaborates with the PortCo service and placement teams to drive consistency in both expectations and outcomes.

Performance tracking capabilities

Our Portfolio Platform allows you to track your portfolio results in a transparent and objective manner. Our Portfolio Managers will analyze the performance of renewals for each company within your portfolio and aggregate them in annual stewardship reports which provide an overview of outcomes on both a qualitative and quantitative basis. For example, we aggregate financial results on a year-over-year basis and compare these against market trends, allowing the sponsor and participating PortCos to understand the costs and benefits of portfolio participation.
