Countries around the globe are engaged in intense pension reform to meet the needs of their underlying beneficiaries and shore up the fiscal sustainability of retirements schemes. Accurate data, sound research, and innovation are needed for policy makers, regulators, and private markets participants to understand how they can enhance the sustainability of their program. CFA Institute recognizes the importance of pensions to the development of local economies and capital markets and to the global securities markets, and we are committed to helping provide relevant and timely information to assist those decision makers.
