The majority of Austrian Pensionskassen have opted to increase their allocation to private markets in their 2021 strategies to fend off the consequences of a prolonged period of low interest rates, Mercer said commenting on the pension funds’ Q1 performance figures.
Overall, multi-employer pension funds achieved a 2.01% performance figure in the first quarter of this year. Bonus Pensionskasse topped the ranking among multi-employer pension funds in Q1 with 3.63% in the dynamic category, which has the highest exposure to equities (more than 40% allocated), according to Mercer.
Bonus performed well with 1.13% in the defensive category as well, with an equity exposure of 16% or less.
