2009 Asian Pension Fund Roundtable

Mitigating Uncertainty: Institutional Investors and Risk Management

The Pacific Pension Institute owes a special thanks to its corporate sponsors, who helped to make this year’s Asian Roundtable possible. Their support and commitment to PPI programs helped bring together over 170 individuals from across 22 countries in Asia, North America, and Europe. Their financial support also enabled PPI to provide scholarship awards to pension fund managers in eight developing countries in Asia.

The Asian Roundtable’s Premier sponsor was Goldman Sachs. Tier One sponsors were Barclays Global Investors, Daiwa SB Investments, DIAM Co., Fountainvest Partners, and Nomura Asset Management.  Highstar Capital sponsored publication of the 2009 Pension Snapshots, our second edition featuring profiles of the social security systems of 15 Asian countries. The evening reception was supported by Tokio Marine Capital and Tokio Marine Asset Management.
