Founded in 2011, the Institute for the Fiduciary Standard is a research and education institution – a think tank – whose single purpose is to promote the vital importance of the fiduciary standard in investment and financial advice. The vision of the Institute is a fiduciary society where fiduciary principles and practices permeate the Wall Streetinvestment and financial advisory profession, and all advice serves investors’ best interest. (A fiduciary society is the term Vanguard founder John C. Bogle uses to describe the goal we must aspire to in ensuring that “trustees of other people’s money act solely in the interests of their beneficiaries.”)

Through our range of products, investors can select funds offering variable sources of alpha and beta, in different combinations, from equity markets around the world.

Marshall Wace has built a robust and scalable global infrastructure. Our strong operational platform, disciplined multi-factor risk control systems and efficient quantitative trading support our portfolio managers in their efforts to maximise the skill-based return delivered to investors. In October 2010, 2011 and 2013, Marshall Wace was recognised as ‘IT Department of the Year - Buy Side’ by the Financial News Awards for Excellence in Trading & Technology. We were instrumental in the creation of the Hedge Fund Standards Board, which has been set up to establish and maintain a set of voluntary best practice standards for hedge fund managers including disclosure, valuation, risk management, fund governance and shareholder conduct. Marshall Wace is a founder signatory of its Best Practice Standards. Many of our partners and employees invest alongside our clients, ensuring alignment of interest.
