Guide Latin America Pensions Investment Context and Regulations Major MarketsCarmen Campollo
Latin America’s private pension funds and the sovereign wealth funds which backstop national social security systems are increasingly being recognized as important sources of capital for the domestic and international capital markets, in addition to being important pillars of fiscal prudence and social cohesion. By the end of 2011, for instance, the authors estimate that the 400+ pension funds they identified in 11 Latin American economies will have aggregate assets of over $700 billion.
These funds’ importance will continue to grow, as they accumulate assets at double-digit growth rates through current participants’ ongoing contributions, through appreciation in the value of the investments, and perhaps most importantly, through the surge of contributions from young people entering an increasingly urbanized and formal workforce, which the World Bank currently forecasts to peak only in mid-century.
While the authors have looked across 11 Latin American countries which sponsor private, capital –accumulating pension funds, this report focuses on the investment regulations of the five major systems, by assets. These five systems, in order of asset size - Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Colombia, and Peru – represent over 95% of the assets in the region’s funds.
Given the predominant size of the assets involved, it is only natural to present a focus on the investment contexts and regulations of the major markets, both for their practical implications to asset allocation and business potential for money managers, as well as for the fact that their experiences make them important ‘thought leaders’ for national policymakers around the globe.

What skills, abilities, experiences, and characteristics do
you have that will meet the employer’s needs ?
5. The Employer’s Perspective
School Districts Speak Out!
How can a candidate make him or herself stand out in their resume?
“…when applying for a specific job, tailor the resume to that position. That
means researching the position and emphasizing your attributes that make
you the perfect candidate.”
“High GPA, special endorsements (math, gifted, etc.).”
“include volunteer opportunities in a school environment; make sure the
information is free of errors, well-organized, and professional”
“Keep it neat, concise and orderly with dates and location of student
teaching and work history.”
“On a resume, I look for their educational preparation, degrees and
certification first in an attempt to make a match. Once you have this basic
information, I like to see what else they can bring to the table as in
extracurricular activities, fine arts, or class moderator positions. We have
100 teachers on staff, but everyone has to do something else to be hired and
it's nice to see that on the resume.”
“Put "highlights" of their experience teaching/student teaching.”
Know Your Strengths and Fit for THAT specific school!
