Writings for the pensions industry


In addition to the ones listed under my peer reviewed publications, below are some more writings (mostly in Finnish) on pensions. My work on the topic focuses on the asset-liability management (ALM) problem of pension providers. Pension liabilities are characterized by long maturities and significant uncertainties (longvevity risk, indexation risk, ...) which make them difficult to cover with existing investment vehicles. This poses significant challences to the asset management of pension funds and governments. Our risk management based approach to ALM provides a consistent basis for e.g. defining capital requirements, setting contributions rates and, of course, risk management. Some presentations: In media:
