Investment thesis

Conning partners with insurers and institutional investors to develop customized investment strategies aligned with each client's obligations, objectives, and risk tolerance. Its approach centers on strategic asset allocation that considers a portfolio's role within the insurer's entire operation rather than merely optimizing returns. The firm integrates regulatory and rating-agency considerations, blends quantitative and qualitative analysis, and takes a highly consultative approach. Conning emphasizes strong modeling capabilities, including joint asset-liability modeling, proprietary modeling of private assets, capital modeling, stress testing, risk reporting, and its economic scenario generator. It positions itself as an experienced provider of tailored solutions across both traditional and specialty asset classes.
