Each fund needs to be administered in terms of its own rules and objectives and should avoid risky short-term gains in favour of steady long-term growth.
A significant loss to a retirement fund is an even greater loss to those who rely on the fund to care for them post-retirement. Although the market will be subject to fluctuations, in the long-term today’s crises appear as smaller fluctuations on graphs of longer term growth.
By maintaining prudent and considered long-term strategies, combined with careful scrutiny of medium term investment strategies, based on their own fund rules and objectives, trustees can ensure that growth is uninterrupted in the long-term.
The analysts of Elite Consulting consider retirement funds in terms of their own profiles and rules to give trustees greater confidence in the ability to deliver on promises made by the fund.
