问题如下:
The SMC pension plan has been able to fund the annual pension payments without any corporate contributions for a number of years. The committee is interested in potential changes to the asset mix that could increase the probability of achieving the long-term investment target return of 5.5% while maintaining the funded status of the plan. Park notes that fixed-income yields are expected to remain low for the foreseeable future. Kroll asks:
Statement 2 If the public equity allocation remains at 60%, is there a single
asset class that could be used for the balance of the portfolio to achieve the
greatest probability of maintaining the pension funding status over a long time
horizon? Under this hypothetical scenario, the balance of the portfolio can be
allocated to either bonds, hedge funds, or private equities.
In answering the
question raised in Statement 2, Park would most likely recommend:
选项:
A.Bonds
Hedge funds
Private equities
解释:
C is correct. When
projecting expected returns, the order of returns from highest to lowest is
typically regarded as private equities, hedge funds, bonds. Therefore, the
probability of achieving the highest portfolio return while maintaining the
funded status of the plan would require the use of private equities in
conjunction with public equities. In addition, private equities have a high/
strong potential to fulfill the role of capital growth. Fixed-income
investments are expected to have a high/strong potential to fulfill the role of
safety.
为什么hedge fund不行啊 可以提高收益 同时分散化比较好 private equity分散性不好啊
