Product Description
No one ever said pension scheme trusteeship was easy. Indeed, this is particularly true with regard to the investment aspects of trusteeship, with its many nuances and often mystifying jargon and terminology. Trustees must strive to improve upon their skill, expertise and organisational effectiveness in determining and monitoring a scheme's investment strategy, because simplicity in many aspects of trusteeship and investment are continually giving way to increased complexity.
Written by two renowned and highly experienced industry practitioners, with a mission to advance trustees' investment knowledge and to provide them with the necessary confidence and competence to adopt an advanced level of investment governance for their scheme,
The Trustee Guide to Investment is a uniquely and refreshingly objective and practical guide to the ever expanding range of markets, investments, tools and techniques to which pension scheme trustees are increasingly exposed by their fund managers and advisers.
