How Pension Funds / Public Pensions could be different



Pension / endowment funds could have a passive investment approach

Private equity firms could become zombies

Endowment fund managers could be more skilled / have superior investment committees / broader knowledge bases / better investing models / bigger size than other institutional investors

Public pensions could be too high in some places / to some people / could be capped at some amount

Public pensions could be invested in transparent, audited companies / have open contracts

"Embedded growth obligations" could distort capitalism and market efficiency

Private equity could disclose fees / real performance as well as be audited independently

Venture capital / impact investing / angel investing / private equity / hedge funds / institutional investors could take ESG / world issues into account

The investment consulting industry could not have value

Passive investing could be better than active investing

Public pensions could be managed by qualified investment managers and/or an independent board

Public pensions could become defined contribution plans
