Executive Summary

This report covers the latest trends in Investment Consultant relationships based on feedback from institutional investors.

Methodology

In 2024, Coalition Greenwich undertook a study with institutional investors to assess the latest trends in Investment Consultant relationships. In North America, we interviewed 137 institutional investors to gather in-depth feedback on their views of the current consultant relationships they have, including major reasons for hiring and not hiring consultants, attributes they look for, searching methodologies for hiring, effectiveness measurement techniques, frequency of review of investment consultants and triggers leading to review.

Interviews took place between February and July 2024.
