Case Study: PNC Financial Services

PNC Asset Management Group Achieves a Clear Perspective on Risk and Return with SunGard's APT

Before SunGard APT, PNC relied on an assortment of external and internal solutions including spreadsheets to measure the risk of individual portfolios. PNC wanted a more robust capability to manage risk across the complete investment process. Consequently, PNC set out to find a factor model based solution that could meet their portfolio risk and asset allocation needs of today and tomorrow.

“APT has a great factor model approach, which captures fat tails and is very flexible around investment decision making.”
Bill Stone, chief investment strategist, PNC Financial Services Group

PNC needed to analyze risk at both the individual manager level and firm-wide level in order to control, monitor, and report on multi-asset class portfolios in order to make strategic decisions on asset allocation. PNC also required a tool capable of position-based analysis, enabling them to increase the exposure of selected portfolios to emerging markets and alternative investments while taking into account associated risks.
