Overview
MIO Partners manages retirement and after-tax investments for McKinsey employees and alumni, offering funds already available in the McKinsey retirement plan and access to additional alternative investments. It administers and oversees these investment funds on an at-cost basis, so neither MIO nor McKinsey earns a profit from the investments. Investors choose from funds within the plan or related alternatives, and MIO’s governance is aligned with investors through significant participation in the funds. The goal is to provide convenient, time-saving investment options and professional management at low cost, with incentives that match those of the investors.
