Further to the known transaction monitoring direction that we are seeing being made a priority issued towards the pensions sector, the Central Bank of Ireland have published its 'Regulatory and Supervisory Outlook 2024' report – the first of what will be an annual report setting out their view on the key trends and risks, and regulatory and supervisory priorities.

DECUMULATION IDEAS #53. The geniuses at #centralbanks stuff the balance sheets with government bonds (effectively encouraging others to do the same) and then raise rates and think nothing will happen! Ta-Da!! H/t Sid Muralidhar for discussion.. My team crushed it in 2008 - this market is 2008 on steroids as this central bank intransigence made #pensionfunds stuff their portfolios with illiquid assets and are now increasing leverage (see Virginia Retirement System board retreat materials or CalSTRS ). Who is regulating these entities?? For all my beefs with De Nederlandsche Bank regulating #Dutch pensions, at least they kept an eye and prevented this nuttiness. The #CIOs who don’t manage beta with suffer a worse fate than the Ivy #endowments in 2008. https://lnkd.in/gZuW6T2a #ComeOnMan https://lnkd.in/gJFH4wMD

OMFIF’s 2023 Global Public Pensions survey found that 63% share of respondents that selected equilibrium real interest rates and inflation as a top-three factor impacting their 5-10 year investment strategy. How will this year's figure compare to last year's, and what could be some potential reasons for any increase or decrease in concern over this factor? Register for the launch of our Global Public Investor 2024 where we will unpack the investment strategies and asset allocation intentions of central bank reserve managers across the world.  https://lnkd.in/gafYHJfY

When you look back on last year.......it was a bit of a crazy time. The LDI funds/UK pensions/Bank of England step in would have normally been the FS story of the year, most people don't realise how close the industry was to meltdown. SVB's failure gets the majority of the press. I think at the time I mentioned that there is a safety net for financial services that allows these kinds of shocks to be absorbed, but, that same safety net does not exist for the tech companies in their supply chain, any financial shock felt by financial services is invariably passed on to the supply chain. We have seen a couple of notable fintech's hit financial difficulties over the last year and Escode have continued to play a significant role in ensuring the situation didn't worsen for both the FIs and the suppliers involved. Here's a nice article from Finextra on the whole SVB situation....one year on.....with a little input from me: https://lnkd.in/dmvmHDaU #escrow #ss221 #dora #stressedexitplanning #tprm #supplierfailure #concentrationrisk
