  • JOB Building IN-HOUSE Investment Capabilities
    AN INSIDE Building IN-HOUSE Investment JOB Capabilities Wafra Investment Advisory Group, Inc. Q4 2016 AN INSIDE JOB: BUILDING IN-HOUSE INVESTMENT CAPABILITIES Recent years have seen sovereign wealth funds (“SWFs”) in- creasingly moving away from asset managers in order to build out their own internal investment teams. The billions of dollars in outflows from external asset managers may save investors on fee payments, but building the internal capabili- ties to perform like external managers creates a host of challenges for sovereign investors. These challenges may include new governance models, institutional commitment, replicating best-in-class performance and the ability to source and compensate appropriate talent. Many sovereign and institutional investors are currently building out their internal capabilities, and this strategic change has coincided with the rise of institutional partnerships and platform investing. Leading institutions, like the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System (“OMERS”), Singapore’s GIC, Kuwait Investment Authority and Canada’s Caisse de Depot et Placement du Quebec (“CDPQ”) are using various types of investment platforms to share and leverage expertise, while seeking to minimize fees. From the initial decision through the final implementation, deve- loping in-house investment teams requires asset owners to assess which amount of investment independence is approp- riate for their institution. Partnerships and platform in- vesting constitute important — and potentially valuable — investment strategies for institutional investors. 2 WHY BRING INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES IN-HOUSE? As a first step towards developing in-house investment capabi- lities, SWFs need to develop clearly defined goals regarding what they hope to gain by investing directly. There are numerous potential benefits to developing internal invest- ment capabilities, which increase as an institution disinter- mediates external managers.
