Das Rentenparadoxon: Rendite sichern, Zukunftschancen schmälern – Eine offene Diskussion
Pension funds are central to retirement planning today, but their portfolios are financing the climate instability, biodiversity loss, and social erosion that degrade returns over the timeframes that matter. The mandate to deliver smooth returns is structurally self-defeating. This session confronts that paradox head-on, looking at what the numbers actually show, what fiduciary duty means when systemic risk is dominant, and what a pension system designed for the 21st century could look like.
Einrahmen
Dieser Abschnitt liefert den Kontext für die Veranstaltung, um sicherzustellen, dass alle Teilnehmer, unabhängig von ihren Vorkenntnissen, in der Lage sind, sich an der Diskussion zu beteiligen.
Pension funds carry obligations over decades. This horizon currently includes climate tipping points, biodiversity loss, aging populations & striking inequality. Yet pension portfolios remain structurally exposed, financing the same extractive sectors that drive this instability. Emerging analyses underscore both the urgency & opportunity for course correction.
