Pension Fund Governance

Edited by John Evans, Michael Orszag and John Piggott

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The academic literature on pension governance is sparse and this book will fill some important gaps by bringing together original contributions from around the world on subjects related to the area. The book initially lays out the main frameworks for pension fund governance and then goes on to examine global governance practice and experience and country studies on pension funds in the United States and Australia. The final section of this in-depth study discusses the role of government guarantees.
