Frequently Asked Questions
What does Beatrice provide in its OCIO (Outsourced Chief Investment Officer) role?
We act as your investment office—designing portfolios, selecting managers, implementing trades, and overseeing reporting. For foundations, endowments, and family entities, we also provide governance support so your board can focus on mission rather than execution.
How is your OCIO approach different from traditional consultants?
Unlike traditional consultants who may rely on model portfolios, we design each allocation with a clean sheet of paper, tailored to your mission, spending policy, liquidity needs, and risk parameters. We use open architecture to access institutional-grade capabilities, including tax-aware strategies, enhanced cash management, and market-neutral diversifiers where appropriate.
Do you support board governance and operational structure?
Yes. We help design and run governance processes—agendas, meeting minutes, investment policy guidance, fee transparency, and reporting frameworks. We also support administrative workflows and entity setup when needed.
Who is a good fit for your OCIO model?
Private foundations, endowments, and complex family entities that require ongoing investment oversight without hiring internal staff. These clients value customization, transparency, and a partner who can design and maintain a long-term asset-management framework.
What does ongoing support look like?
You receive a dedicated team handling reporting, administration, manager monitoring, board communications, and disciplined execution. While OCIO engagements focus more on execution than holistic family advisory, clients often continue long-term due to our customized approach and responsiveness.
