NORWALK, Conn., Aug. 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Investment Metrics (IM), a leading provider of analytics, reporting, and benchmarking solutions for the institutional investment market, today announced the next generation of Plan Universe on its Market Insights platform. The new analysis and benchmarking product offers investment consultants and advisors, asset owners, and managers increasing interactive capabilities to analyze plan sponsor peer group performance, asset allocation, and risk across plan types, plan sizes, and asset classes, delivering unparalleled insight into institutional investment performance.

Leveraging Market Insights' intuitive analytics platform, Plan Universe delivers benchmarking, research, and analysis that taps into Investment Metrics' robust plan sponsor universe data set. The data set includes gross and net performance, asset allocation across more than 4,000 institutional plans, and over $4 trillion in assets, making it the largest tax-exempt data set in the industry.
