What is the OCIO Directory?
The OCIO Directory is a free public resource from OCIO Analytics for researching named outsourced chief investment officer providers.
It organizes information from public SEC Form ADV filings and related brochures into common fields, making it easier to establish a factual baseline across firms before requesting proposals or conducting deeper due diligence.

How to use the directory

Important diligence context
A starting point—not a scorecard.
The OCIO Directory does not rank, endorse, or recommend providers. Public disclosure data can clarify the market, but it cannot determine which firm is right for a specific institution.
A defensible selection still requires current source-document review and direct evaluation of the proposed team, investment capabilities, performance, fees, conflicts, governance fit, service model, and references.
