IAR survey: active versus passive

Investors have been debating the merits of active versus passive investing for decades. Beyond the pure academic discussion, there are real implications as choosing one over the other has the potential to affect returns and skew risks in significant ways.

For insurers, who pride themselves as long-term investors, is passive the natural route forward? Or is active investing the most important part of the insurance general account?

Help us determine where insurers stand in the debate by taking a short survey (approx. 5min). Please answer by Friday 14th August 12pm BST
