Institutional Sales: Endowment liquidity review
Institutional Sales: Insurer duration question
Consultant Relations: Research refresh
A consultant is refreshing manager research. The counterpart shares the visible concern but needs a respectful opening before adding detail. As the consultant relations professional, address this concern: They will not accept broad differentiation claims.
Practice goals
- Learn which research conclusions need refreshing and which attribution questions remain open.
- Agree on the approved evidence that can support the research update.
- Establish scope, ask a focused first question, and explain the appropriate next step.
ETF Wholesaler: Model portfolio due diligence
An RIA is reviewing whether an ETF fits a model update. The counterpart shares the visible concern but needs a respectful opening before adding detail. As the ETF wholesaler, address this concern: They need education without a client recommendation.
Practice goals
- Learn the model-update criteria and home-office review status.
- Provide fund education and approved materials without recommending the ETF.
- Establish scope, ask a focused first question, and explain the appropriate next step.
Client Portfolio Specialist: Drawdown review
A client asks why the strategy fell during a market drawdown. The counterpart shares the visible concern but needs a respectful opening before adding detail. As the portfolio specialist, address this concern: They want a recovery promise.
Practice goals
- Understand the client’s drawdown concern and the committee’s immediate questions.
- Explain approved attribution context without promising a recovery.
- Establish scope, ask a focused first question, and explain the appropriate next step.
RFP Lead: Ambiguous investment mandate
The RFP asks for a fixed-income mandate, but the appendix lists two different duration ranges. The counterpart shares the visible concern but needs a respectful opening before adding detail. As the asset management RFP lead, address this concern: They need a response that identifies the conflict without choosing an interpretation for them.
Practice goals
- Document the two conflicting mandate statements and request the governing version.
- Establish scope, ask a focused first question, and explain the appropriate next step.
