Podcast: Will illiquid investments help or hinder DC pensions?
Illiquid assets may be the talk of the DC town right now, but how can we use them to help maximise long-term returns for members, mitigate potential risks and align them with ESG considerations? And do DC pension members even want them included in their fund defaults?
John Roe, LGIM’s Head of Multi-asset Funds, and Jesal Mistry, Head of DC Investment, explore and debate the pros and cons of illiquids including how to position these type of investments in a wider multi-asset portfolio and how to uncover the right types of assets, whether in social housing, renewables, or elsewhere.
The podcast is available on Spotify, Apple and Audioboom and is hosted by Heather Forse, DC Content Manager.
