Cardano offers two main services to European pension funds: solvency management and risk management. The group’s 80 employees are split between the firm’s Dutch and UK offices and growth in its personnel reflects that of its revenues and clientele in recent times. As the solvency manager, Cardano says it provides full-time management of a pension fund’s solvency position: its funding level. “This ensures that our focus and the measurement of our per¬formance is based on the trustees’ main objective: improving and stabilising the funding level,” the firm says. “The trustees remain responsible for the most important long-term decisions. This includes setting clear investment objectives, risk tolerance and the permissible range of assets. They then delegate the day-to-day management of the assets to us as solvency manager, with the task of achieving these solvency-related objectives within the risk budget using the permitted assets.”
