One of the greatest potential threats to future global prosperity is a lack of key infrastructure in both emerging and developed economies. In response, Oliver Wyman’s Global Risk Center is participating in the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development’s “Institutional Investors and Long-Term Investment” project.
This research effort is exploring how best to stimulate long-term infrastructure investment by institutional investors such as pension funds, insurance companies, and sovereign wealth funds.
The 2013 Survey of Large Pension Funds and Public Pension Reserve Funds is one of the reports emerging from this project. It is based on a qualitative and quantitative questionnaire sent directly to funds. The information in this report is designed to illustrate the role that large institutional investors can play in providing a source of stable long-term capital. It looks at the investment behaviors and performance of the largest institutional investors in each region / country, with a further focus on investment in infrastructure.
