Summary - P&I Global Pension Symposium

The global economic recovery continues to be unstable. With the rollout of the vaccine, the great lockdown was expected to become the “great rebound.” However, recent Delta variant outbreaks have slowed the robust growth that had been gaining momentum over the summer. Meanwhile, companies poised for success have reconsidered their business models by incorporating a hybrid schedule which includes a mixture of working from home and at the office. This transformation in how business is done has impacted everyone throughout the pandemic. Some of the positive results are less pollution from long commutes and a revived interest in sustainable investing, while concerns over rising inflation continue.

P&I’s Global Pension Symposium features strategies aimed at helping pension investors navigate the uncertainty of the pandemic while trying to improve retirement outcomes. The program features several panel discussions with key industry experts, pension executives and asset managers on topics such as these and more:

· The global macroeconomy vs. Japan’s economy

· Pension fund management resiliency

· ESG investment approaches

· Pension governance

· Building sustainable pension portfolios

· Managing fixed income portfolios in a rising rate environment

· Inflation protection in real assets

· Women’s empowerment and advancement within fund management

· The future of public pension and corporate pension management

· Fixed income opportunities within China and Asia

· Portfolio protection solutions
