Risk and Cost Minimization

Control potential risks and associated costs while implementing your portfolio asset allocation with our expert risk mitigation techniques. Monitor expenses throughout the event through using our detailed cost analysis reports. Our experience in trading multiple asset classes will help you minimize the effects of:

• Exposure risk – by preventing incorrect asset classes or unwanted cash exposure
• Execution risk – associated with transacting in the market, for example, through information leakage or counterparty risk
• Operational risk – by assigning a portfolio manager to each milestone event, we anticipate and manage risks inherent with portfolio set-up, settlement and coordination of all parties
• Process risk – by ensuring accountability with a clearly defined project management process
  
  

Northern Trust’s heritage of risk management is built into our executions. We handle large, complex transitions with full transparency while minimizing risk and cost.
