An indexing and price movement model for managing pension funds.
A model for the investment of pension funds has been created that combines passive and active portfolio management strategies. The model uses a passive index fund to reduce the amount spent in transaction costs. It applies a percentage band that identifies the portion of the portfolio that should be committed to equity investments at various stages of the market movement cycle. Finally, it uses price movement trigger points to dictate when pension funds should be moved into and withdrawn from stock market investments.
