Partners for ideal decision.
The challenge
Our approach
Value to our partner
NN Investment Partners acted in an advisory capacity for a public sector investor shortly before
the outbreak of the European sovereign debt crisis. The client had amassed a substantial portfolio
in recent years, with exposure to the debt of a number of negatively impacted countries. When
the crisis erupted, the client was faced with the challenge of managing the bond holdings amidst
significant stakeholder pressure.
As advisor, NN Investment Partners was able to engage our client’s stakeholders in a rational
discussion. We were able to explain the story behind the news. We informed the client about the
risks posed by the crisis, and about the consequences that selling the bonds would have in terms
of yields, fees and income.
Our experts’ long experience and in-depth knowledge enabled the client to make an informed
decision. Through our constant contact and continuing dialogue, the client was able to avoid
being pressured by media or public officials into hasty or emotional decisions that would have
been financially detrimental. Moreover, we provided our partners with the ammunition of
intelligence they needed to respond to such pressure or criticism.
