Upcoming Webinar: Diversification, a Dynamo for LDI
Please join Voya’s LDI Strategist, Oleg Gershkovich, and Fixed Income Client Portfolio Manager, Brett Cornwell, -
We believe successful Liability-Driven Investing (LDI) portfolio management requires a comprehensive knowledge of actuarial sciences as well as a deep understanding of financial markets. This belief explains our multi-dimensional approach to LDI that combines a Liability Strategy Development team with a team of experienced portfolio managers.
