Appropriate investment behavior, geared to the long term and capable of withstanding financial market turbulence and erratic funding ratios, is therefore of paramount importance to pension funds. For their latest study, Credit Suisse economists took a close look at the investment behavior of Swiss pension funds and found that the funding ratio, which often takes center stage in political discussions, has a significant impact on the investment strategies of these institutions. The report concludes that pension funds generally invest their pension assets relatively efficiently, but that there is room for improvement as regards asset allocation, where better use could be made of the diversification options that are available. The report also uses model calculations to demonstrate the impact of changes in life expectancy and yield expectations on the conversion rate.Research, studies, publicationsSwiss Business Banking
