More stable returns – asset allocation as part of the treasury strategy

Current interest rate trends are increasingly and significantly affecting the operating results of financial institutions. Therefore – over and beyond pure maturity transformation – Treasury success is of central importance for a sustainable certainty and stabilization of operating results. In this context, it is necessary to take into account the fact that ad-hoc implementation of a supposedly optimum portfolio can be associated with result risks. zeb/ will support you by means of a strategic asset allocation approach as well as with the inclusion of additional asset classes in order sustainably to increase Treasury success – effective integration of all asset classes into bank wide risk management is the key to success in this area.

zeb/ will help you in the design and implementation of strategic asset allocation. In this context, asset classes such as e.g. the customer credit business are integrated into strategic asset allocation. Following examination of the existing asset class mix, additional alternative asset classes that may be appropriate for your institution are analysed in order to develop the optimal asset allocation for your establishment. In this context, particular value is placed on a conclusive and effective integration into bank wide risk management – an integrated control of all asset classes on a bank wide level makes it possible to develop efficient control reactions to increase the overall success of your institution.
