Fiduciary Management
"Dr. van Nunen goes much further than to discuss governance. He discusses all aspects of what should be done in making a defined benefit plan successful, and expresses his views forthrightly. And he not only traces the history of pension arrangements, but supplements it with a fascinating chapter comparing arrangements around what I think of as the funded world. His ideas are relevant to fiduciaries around the funded world ... I hope you find his book as interesting, engaging, and useful as I did." --From the Foreword by Don Ezra, Director of Investment Strategy,…mehr

Fiduciary Management

"Dr. van Nunen goes much further than to discuss governance. He discusses all aspects of what should be done in making a defined benefit plan successful, and expresses his views forthrightly. And he not only traces the history of pension arrangements, but supplements it with a fascinating chapter comparing arrangements around what I think of as the funded world. His ideas are relevant to fiduciaries around the funded world ... I hope you find his book as interesting, engaging, and useful as I did."
--From the Foreword by Don Ezra, Director of Investment Strategy, Russell Investment Group, and coauthor of Pension Fund Excellence

"Many pension funds are too small to ever become cost-effective pension delivery organizations. This book offers a solution to the serious 'too small' problem."
--Keith Ambachtsheer, Director of the Rotman International Centre for Pension Management, University of Toronto, founder of KPA Advisory Services Ltd., and author of Pension Revolution

"The topic of fiduciary management is now at the leading edge of assets and pensions management, which makes this book extremely timely. It manages to distill a wealth of practice and experience into a short and lucid discussion of the topic. A particular pleasure is that it avoids the trap of pages of obscure and usually irrelevant mathematics. For the many not following into this field, this is a 'must read.'"
--Con Keating, principal of The Finance Development Centre Ltd., London

"As is readily apparent from this book, Dr. van Nunen has thought long and hard about fiduciarymanagement and is one of the world's leading experts. He comprehensively describes how fiduciary management can improve plan governance, particularly as it relates to manager selection and the management of surplus risk. The book does an excellent job explaining how fiduciary management provides a robust framework and clear separation of duties for investment committee members trying to navigate an increasingly complex investment landscape."
--Bob Litterman, Managing Director and Head of Goldman Sachs Asset Management's Quantitative Resources Group, and author of Modern Investment Management: An Equilibrium Approach

"I found the book an interesting, engaging, and stimulating read. Fiduciary management is a very timely topic and is especially relevant for smaller pension plans that may lack in-house expertise. Such plans would benefit from outside help. The book covers a lot of ground. Dr. van Nunen shares with us his valuable insights and experience in his discussion of the pitfalls and complexities of asset management. Anyone who manages a defined benefit pension plan can benefit from reading this book."
--Josef Lakonishok, CEO and CIO of LSV Asset Management
