Treasury sleeve redesign: lifting yield without breaking liquidity

Challenge

The client treasury sleeve was overly idle, but prior attempts to increase yield had introduced maturity mismatch and liquidity discomfort.

What Ottimo changed

We redesigned the sleeve around staggered liquidity buckets, tighter maturity discipline, and clearer role separation between reserve assets and return-seeking assets.

  • Short-duration liquidity was ring-fenced.
  • Yield enhancement came from better structure, not blind duration extension.
  • Reinvestment decisions moved onto a repeatable calendar.

Outcome

The treasury sleeve delivered stronger carry with intact flexibility and a cleaner decision framework for future deployment.

Yield improved because the structure became better, not because the client accepted hidden fragility.
