Experience & breadth adapted for you

No. Keyridge operates across the full spectrum, from off-the-shelf advisory relationships, through to fully bespoke co-created mandates. Many clients begin with a standard fund or strategy and develop a deeper partnership over time as their needs become more specific. Others come to us with a defined problem from the outset that requires a custom solution. We are built to serve both, and to move fluidly between them as client needs evolve.

Our solutions capability serves a broad range of institutional and wholesale clients — including asset managers and ETF providers looking to fill gaps in their product range, wealth managers and DFMs building model portfolio solutions, institutional investors such as pension funds, endowments, and sovereign wealth funds with specific mandate requirements, and insurance companies or platforms seeking white label or co-branded investment products. If you manage capital on behalf of others and have an investment need that existing products do not adequately meet, we are likely able to help.

Our typical launch path runs from initial engagement to live mandate in approximately 12 weeks. That timeline covers portfolio methodology agreement, initial prototype construction, iterative results analysis and refinement, mandate structuring, and client onboarding. The process is designed to be iterative rather than linear. The client is an active participant at every stage, not a recipient of a finished product. More complex mandates or those requiring regulatory structuring may take longer, and we adapt the timeline to each client’s procurement cycle.

Yes and this is an important distinction. While Keyridge has deep expertise in sustainable and ESG-integrated mandates, our solutions capability is not defined by or limited to responsible investing. We build custom mandates across any investment objective: factor-based strategies, income and yield-focused solutions, geographically specific mandates, liquid alternatives allocations, multi-asset completion portfolios, and bespoke hedge fund programmes. The common thread is not a sustainability lens but a rigorous, systematic construction process that can be configured around any set of client beliefs, constraints, and objectives.

Three things distinguish our approach. First, genuine construction depth – we have 30 years of systematic portfolio engineering expertise, proprietary index and mandate construction technology, and a process that has been refined across hundreds of mandates. Second, the ability to straddle advisory and bespoke: we are not a pure solutions boutique, which means clients benefit from the scale, track record, and operational infrastructure of a EUR 150bn asset manager. Third, partnership as a genuine operating model rather than a service wrapper. We begin every engagement with the client’s problem, not our product range, and we remain accountable for the outcome throughout the mandate’s life.

Our custom mandate capability spans public equity, fixed income, multi-asset, systematic and factor-based strategies, quantitative and bespoke indexation, liquid alternatives, and private markets. We can incorporate sustainability frameworks, thematic tilts, factor exposures, exclusion lists, yield targets, tracking error constraints, and liquidity requirements into a single constructed solution. For more complex allocations, such as alternatives portfolios or multi-manager structures, we also work with specialist partners where their expertise adds to the quality of the outcome.
