Tailored Investment Solutions for Corporations

With PNC, you have access to powerful tools and insights to help you achieve your goals. In today’s constantly changing and complex environment, corporations are facing a unique set of challenges.

  • Managing investments and meeting fiduciary obligations — while balancing risk with available opportunities — is increasingly time and labor intensive.
  • Recruiting, engaging, and retaining employees requires vigilant and effective management of defined benefit and defined contribution retirement plans. 
  • Persistently low interest rates hinder the ability to maximize short-term liquidity and reserve assets. 
  • Managing corporate foundations and other assets designated to impact communities and causes requires a combination of investment and nonprofit expertise. 

Specialized Investment Capabilities and Services

PNC Institutional Asset Management® offers a range of specialized investment capabilities and services for corporate asset pools, including:

  • Short and long-term balance sheet assets
  • Defined benefit plans 
  • Defined contribution plans 
  • Voluntary employee beneficiary association (VEBA) plans
  • Corporate foundations 
  • Captive insurance assets

With PNC, these solutions are delivered through a single point of contact. Your dedicated investment advisor serves as your institutional relationship manager and works with a full team of specialists who bring a holistic perspective to your unique situation. Our solutions are unbiased, consultative and tailored to your specific needs to deliver results.

More than an asset manager, PNC Institutional Asset Management is also your connection to all the comprehensive services that the bank has to offer, allowing us to serve as your custodian, trustee, lender, treasury manager, deposit bank and more.

Retirement Plan Solutions for Corporations

Our extensive retirement plan experience can improve employee satisfaction while helping your organization fulfill its fiduciary responsibilities.

Defined Contribution Plan Solutions

Our Fiduciary Investment Services assist plan sponsors with meeting the multitude of requirements related to the investment of the assets of 401(k), 403(b), and other participant directed plans. Serving as either a 3(21) nondiscretionary investment advisor or a 3(38) discretionary investment manager in a fiduciary capacity, our experienced professionals provide:

  • Comprehensive investment selection and monitoring assistance
  • Value-added fiduciary support, education, and plan design consultation
  • Recordkeeper search capabilities

Employee Education Solutions for Defined Contribution Plans

The retirement benefits you offer have a direct impact on recruiting and retaining top talent — and on your employees’ financial wellness. That’s why we offer Employee Education Solutions as a supplement to our Fiduciary Investment Services —to provide robust resources to meet the diverse needs of your workforce and deliver measurable results for your organization. Through our customized education solutions, PNC can help your employees get the most from their plans and achieve their retirement savings goals.

Defined Benefit Plan Solutions

Our liability-centric approach to pension management provides you with the opportunity to implement de-risking strategies to address the volatility of your pension funds. Trustee, custody and pension payment services complement our open-architecture OCIO investment management solution.

Liquidity and Fixed Income Management for Corporations

Our suite of fixed income solutions is designed to help you reach your investment goals related to liquidity management, portfolio risk optimization and total return. We craft separately managed fixed income accounts tailored to your unique objectives through PNC Capital Advisors, LLC (PCA) — a registered investment advisor and wholly owned subsidiary of PNC Bank.

Rather than a product-based approach, PCA takes a solutions-based perspective. Our clients benefit from the discipline and risk-focused advice of an experienced team delivering:

  • Liquidity solutions for pursuing yield and return goals while also managing the cadence of cash flows.
  • Custom solutions that are tailored to your organization’s specific needs and objectives.
  • Broad market portfolios that utilize traditional fixed income strategies and benchmark-based objectives for total return.

Trustee and Custody Services for Corporations

PNC delivers comprehensive trustee and custody solutions to support the safekeeping of employee benefit plan and corporate assets, as applicable, all through a single point of contact. And with our advanced I-Hub system, you have 24-hour online access to transaction processing and account information, including all custody data.

Corporate Responsibility

An Unwavering Commitment to Our Customers, Employees and Communities

We believe that our company should serve a greater purpose. That’s why we’re committed to the success of our employees, customers, and the communities we serve. We strive to minimize our impact on the environment. And we hold ourselves to the highest standards of governance and risk management.

For our customers, our promise is to keep your goals at the center of everything we do. That’s why PNC Institutional Asset Management takes a solutions-based, consultative approach to investments. Rather than trying to sell a product, we start by working to understand your company’s unique needs, and asking “What do you need your assets to do?” Then we explore solutions to meet that goal through a strategic approach to risk that protects our customers and their stakeholders.

We do all of this through strong, local leadership, collaboration with important local organizations, and by maintaining an active presence in the local community.
