An experienced partner in insurance asset management
Our team of dedicated professionals focuses a range of expertise on meeting the needs of insurers — from bespoke investment strategies to industry-savvy client service to specialised regulatory reporting and financial modeling.
In the UK, Wellington was honoured to be the first investment manager to become an associate member of the Association of British Insurers in June 2019. As a trusted steward of our clients’ assets, our commitment to British insurers requires a deep understanding of both the regulatory environment and the challenges facing their investment portfolios, including climate change — an area where the ABI has been actively helping insurers to understand the related risks and policy initiatives.

We combine proprietary technology and qualitative judgment to balance upside potential with downside risk, supporting consistency of performance. Sophisticated tools that can support insurers’ ERM systems play a key role in this task. Over 508 technology professionals bolster the construction and management of customised, risk-controlled portfolios.
The business and investment environment for the insurance industry becomes more and more complex each year. We understand insurers’ challenges, and have the resources — specialised investment managers along with client-service professionals well-versed in global regulatory requirements and asset/liability and capital-management goals — to offer effective solutions.

Rich Coffman, Business Development Manager
We are well equipped to help European insurers create customised investment solutions to meet the requirements of the evolving Solvency II landscape.
Bob Sharma, CFA, Relationship Manager
I love working with insurance clients to come up with portfolio strategies designed around their unique investment goals — whether that’s maximising yield in today’s low-rate environment, capital preservation, or asset/liability matching.
Liz Kleinerman, CFA, Fixed Income Portfolio Manager
