PWC Quote
A single system for asset management, modeling, and actuarial valuations could halve advisor and analytics costs according to Raj Mody, Head of PwC's Pensions Consulting Group. Having one system for asset information, liability modeling, actuarial valuations, and more could significantly reduce costs by streamlining different processes and roles onto a single platform. Mody believes unifying these various functions into one system could potentially cut advisor and analytics expenses in half.
Brexit Explainer Series
This document discusses the impact of Brexit on markets and risks. It shows that while investors were prepared for weakness in the British pound, the key question is whether they will maintain their UK asset holdings. European systemic risk spiked following Brexit, showing markets have become more fragile. Data so far shows investors are not becoming broadly more risk averse in response to Brexit, pointing to "no panic" for now. The document warns that uncertainty from Brexit could lead to a UK recession and discusses potential contagion risks to other European countries.
Asset Owner Client Quote
Pension boards require representation from key stakeholders with expertise in strategic management, human resources policy, finance, and investing to ensure a balanced perspective. Directors with experience in these critical areas can provide strategic guidance on managing pensions. Representation from stakeholders knowledgeable about strategic planning, personnel issues, finances, and investments allows pension boards to make well-informed decisions.
State Street Global Research Retreats
This document summarizes talks given at State Street Global Research Retreats in Boston, London, and Asia Pacific. It provides quotes from six speakers: Jeremy Stein discussing macroeconomic risks following periods of elevated credit market sentiment; Robert Rigobon on multinational importers having predictive power on nominal exchange rates; Mark Kritzman introducing a new procedure to improve portfolio risk estimation; Kenneth Froot discussing new behavioral indicators and client anonymity from SSA data flows; Martin Weale stating the productivity shortfall has become international; and Stefan Thomke on designing customer experiences through play and stories.
Ilmarinen Quote
The fund manager feels it is more effective to manage their European equity portfolio internally rather than outsourcing it, while they bring in external help to manage developing markets. The president and CEO of Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance stated that they manage their European equity portfolio in-house and use outside help for developing markets. They keep European equity management internal while outsourcing developing markets.
Search for Transparency
Nearly half of pension professionals struggle to gain transparency on risks from alternative assets according to a 2015 survey. The survey polled 400 senior executives in the pension fund industry across 20 countries. It found that 46% had difficulty understanding risks from investments like hedge funds and private equity.

Ron O'Hanley's Open Letter to Congress
SSGA’s Ron O’Hanley believes the time has come for universal workplace coverage in a retirement savings plan.
Alternatives Experts Wanted
Only 23% of senior executives from 400 pension funds surveyed described their own institutions' knowledge of alternative assets like private equity and hedge funds as "very high". The survey was conducted globally across 20 countries in late 2015 by research firm Longitude on behalf of State Street.

State Street Explains...
Blockchain is a distributed digital ledger that records transactions in a verifiable and permanent way. It allows market participants to digitally record transactions without the need for a central authority. Blockchains use cryptography to keep records secure and decentralized across a network.

Balancing model performance and complexity in real-world analytics applications
This document discusses balancing model complexity and performance in real-world analytics applications. It uses collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) as a case study, noting they were simple in concept but complex in structure. Early CDO models underestimated risk. More complex portfolio simulation models that sample across latent factors can better model risk but require more computing power. The document discusses defining and driving complexity, as well as choosing models based on performance, communication ability, and other criteria. It notes both simplicity and complexity can be desirable goals depending on the situation.
Nordic Pension Funds Embrace a New Reality
The document discusses challenges facing Nordic pension funds, including rising longevity, stringent solvency requirements, exposure to global markets, and aging populations. Pension funds in Sweden, Finland, Norway, and Denmark are undergoing reforms to address these issues, such as increasing retirement ages and adopting more defined contribution plans. Nordic funds are also diversifying their portfolios, increasing their use of alternative assets and passive investment strategies, and enhancing internal expertise and oversight of external managers. Improving data management and technology is seen as important for better governance and decision making.
The Folklore of Finance
The document discusses how "folklore", or shared beliefs rooted in human bias, influence behaviors in the investment management industry in detrimental ways. Specifically, it outlines how the industry's focus on producing alpha, reliance on past performance, and definitions of success that prioritize short-term gains over long-term investor goals have led to failures to achieve true success or help investors meet their long-term financial objectives. The document advocates for reallocating resources away from activities that contribute little value and toward those that better support investors' long-term needs through emphasizing goal prioritization, effective communication, and incorporating insights from behavioral finance.

Opportunities for Optimism? A New Vision for Value in Asset Management
Asset managers are playing for high stakes. A rising market creates opportunities on multiple fronts, but the industry's optimism may be tested by new risks, changing client demands and non-traditional competitors. Our research identifies four emerging "value drivers" that may shape the industry's future success.
The Innovator’s Journey: Insurance Sector Insights
On behalf of State Street, Longitude conducted a global survey of senior executives at investment
organizations during October and November 2014. We asked them to self-assess their confidence and
progress across six data capabilities, including infrastructure, insight, adaptability, compliance, talent and
governance. The 400 respondents were drawn from 11 countries and included insurance companies,
private and public pension funds, fund-of-funds, foundations, central banks, endowments, sovereign
wealth funds and supranationals. One-hundred insurance companies participated in the survey.

Ending stagnation: How to boost prosperity across Scotland
A toxic combination of 15 years of low growth, and four decades of high inequality, has left Britain poorer and falling behind its peers. Productivity growth is weak and public investment is low, while wages today are no higher than they were before the financial crisis. Britain needs a new economic strategy to lift itself out of stagnation.
Scotland is in many ways a microcosm of this challenge. It has become a hub for creative industries, is home to several world-class universities and a thriving community of businesses – strengths that need to be harness and leveraged. But it also has high levels of deprivation, with homelessness reaching a record high and nearly half a million people living in very deep poverty last year. Scotland won’t be truly thriving unless it finds ways to ensure that all its inhabitants benefit from growth and investment. This is the central challenge facing policy makers both in Holyrood and Westminster.
What should a new national economic strategy for Scotland include? What would the pursuit of stronger economic growth mean for local, national and UK-wide policy makers? How will economic change affect the jobs we do, the places we live and the businesses we work for? And what are the prospects for cities like Glasgow, and nations like Scotland, in rising to these challenges?

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

What's a worker’s market? Job quality and labour market tightness
What's a worker’s market? Job quality and labour market tightnessLabour Market Information Council | Conseil de l’information sur le marché du travail
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.STREETONOMICS: Exploring the Uncharted Territories of Informal Markets throug...

Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio Problem
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.
