Rethinking pension investment strategyJune 12, 2019 7:30 AM to 9:00 AMRoyal Mayfair Golf and Country Club, Edmonton, Alberta Area of Interest: Pensions Format: In PersonDefined Benefit pension plans rely on investment earnings to fund as much as 75% of their members’ pensions. This means that delivering strong and reliable investment returns is critical to the long-term stability of their plans. At the same time, the characteristics of the liabilities can’t be ignored. Constructing an investment portfolio that can deliver on these goals isn’t an easy task, but it usually starts with good diversification. But are pension plans truly as diversified as they think? Is how they have invested in the past the right strategy for ongoing success in the future, or is there a better way? The team at the Alberta Teachers’ Retirement Fund (ATRF) has spent the last year seeking answers to these questions. Follow their journey of self-reflection, share in what they learned and hear how ATRF is adopting a new approach to pension portfolio construction.
