Course Description
Against the backdrop of “New Normal” financial conditions of historic low interest rates, bond yields combined with low property rental yields, and disappointing equity market returns, pension schemes are under great pressure. They need to deliver higher returns to meet their increasing liabilities due to the greater longevity of pension scheme members.
Asset allocation remains a critical consideration as pension schemes seek to leverage their natural liquidity in order to generate higher returns from longer term investment in new capital assets. The traditional approach of allocating to existing securities markets – which may only result in increasingly inflated prices for existing capital – is increasingly being called into question.
Pension scheme Governors and Trustees with a fiduciary responsibility to act in the best interests of members have also increasingly been questioning the value added by external asset managers, and their often disappointing performance, and taking on these responsibilities themselves.
There are many complex decisions to be made and this course will arm those responsible for investment of pension fund assets with the knowledge to make these critical choices with greater confidence.
