The future of passive investing after the bear market - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

The rapid rise of passive investing is one of the stand-out phenomena of this century. Detractors have long argued that it is largely underpinned by excess liquidity from central banks in the wake of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. Once that drains away, as has happened conspicuously in the last two years, the wheels will come off the passive bandwagon. Against this backdrop, Sebastian Schiele, Head of Passive Mandates Sales EMEA & APAC at DWS Xtrackers, will elucidate the findings of the newly released Passive Investing Report 2023 “Passive investing after the bear market”. 148 pension plans have participated in the survey. They have provided practical insights into how passives have advanced into core portfolios and how they have fared in the bear market of 2022. The survey conducted by CREATE Research is sponsored by Xtrackers. The webcast will address the following topics: • How have passives performed compared with actives in pension portfolios in the 2022 bear market? • Why is passive investing now a foundational trend even though the bear market has exposed its limitations? • How will active and passive styles continue to complement one another in a diversified pension portfolio? • Why are passives likely to experience product widening and deepening in the next wave of growth? The webcast will be moderated by Brendan Maton.
