Spanish2019 World Pensions Forum Held in EU Capital Before G7 Summit
By M. Nicolas J. Firzli
The 8th World Pensions Forum was held 23-24 May: 130 pension executives and supranational experts representing $12 trillion in combined assets convened in Brussels to discuss “Effective Asset Ownership”. The Forum was pleased to note that some of our ideas were taken up by the Finnish presidency of the Council of Europe and the G7 Steering Committee – notably the empowerment of women entrepreneurs and the notion of institutional co-investment in private equity and sustainable infrastructure in South Asia and Africa.
The main findings of the 2019 WPC/WPF annual conference will also inform the preparatory work leading up to the inaugural Singapore Economic Forum (“Singapore Forum”) in November 2020: the preliminary agenda will be announced during the G7 Summit.
