OCIO (Outsourced Chief Investment Officer services) is a business model offered by BlackRock which entails the outsourcing of the day-to-day management of asset pools typically managed by plan sponsors. With new developments such as closing / freezing of DB plans, pension risk transfers, economies-of-scale achieved by large asset managers, and the difficulty sponsors encounter when hiring investment experts, has led to a dramatic increasing of outsourcing activities.
