  4. Performance Monitoring and Reporting:

    • Monitor investment performance, benchmark comparisons, and key performance indicators (KPIs) to assess portfolio performance against stated objectives and benchmarks.
    • Prepare regular investment reports, performance summaries, and financial analyses for trustees, investment committees, and stakeholders to facilitate informed decision-making.
  5. Stakeholder Engagement and Communication:

    • Collaborate with pension fund trustees, investment committees, and external advisors to provide investment updates, strategic recommendations, and financial forecasts.
    • Communicate investment strategies, portfolio reviews, and market insights effectively to stakeholders, ensuring transparency and alignment with fiduciary responsibilities.
  6. Governance and Regulatory Compliance:

    • Ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, fiduciary duties, and governance policies governing pension fund investments.
