    A specialist in liability-driven investing

    Insight’s leadership in LDI is built on years of experience helping pension schemes of all sizes to develop and implement robust long-term funding strategies focused on their endgame objectives. Over the years we have helped our clients to evolve their approach in response to changing circumstances and market conditions.

    We have long experience and expertise in managing the interest rate and inflation risks for defined benefit pension schemes in both pooled and segregated solutions.

    We seek to keep our hedge management approach both efficient and cost-effective in a very dynamic market and regulatory environment.

    Insight's LDI platform has risk protection mechanisms which have helped to protect our clients through stressed market events.

    The next biggest risk for UK defined benefit pension schemes, after interest rates and inflation, is longevity risk.

    Insight provides a platform through which small and large pension schemes can efficiently transfer longevity risk to the reinsurance market.

    We have driven innovation and research into longevity risk for UK DB pension schemes for many years. Below is a range of materials focused on how best to manage longevity risk.

    Integrated risk-management solutions are designed to help pension schemes reach their funding objectives with increased investment efficiency, lower governance and greater resilience.

    When we partner with pension schemes to build an integrated solution, we aim to help manage the three main sources of risk: liabilities, investment returns and cashflow.
