Debate Grows Over Private Assets in Defined Benefit Plans
Original: Private Assets in DB Plans: ‘It’s Not the Medicine; it’s the Dosage’
Pension industry commentators are weighing how much private market exposure is appropriate for defined benefit plans, with the framing that the question is not whether private assets belong in portfolios but how large the allocation should be. The discussion comes as US pension funds face pressure to improve returns and as regulators and fiduciaries scrutinize the liquidity and valuation risks of private investments.
Why now: Ongoing industry debate over pension funds increasing allocations to private assets has prompted discussion about appropriate sizing and risk.
