Regulations require that these pension assets be invested domestically. In this paper, we quantify how diversification of the pension funds to include world financial assets could help a great deal in improving the sustainability of Pakistan pensions by simultaneously increasing expected returns and decreasing volatility. These arguments are made using historical data, and the robustness of our findings is demonstrated using a large variety of alternative assumptions about future asset returns, risks, and correlations., JEL Classification Codes: H55, G11, G23, 経済学 / Economics}, title = {Asset Allocation for the Pakistan Pension System: A Role for International Diversification?} }
