Judging by the interest in this list from OCIO providers, and by the growth in their collective responses, OCIO is hot.
A total of 53 firms volunteered information on their businesses this year, up 17% from 49 providers last year. Throw in a 17% growth in total assets under discretionary management and an uptick of 1,306 total full discretionary clients over the last year, and you have a business that shows few signs of leveling off. Growth over the last eight years is even more pronounced: Total discretionary assets jumped an extraordinary 860% while the number of discretionary clients soared 2,189% since 2007. So read on and see what these providers are offering.
