Vanguard's OCIO clients should be wary of the higher-fee active funds and #alternativeinvestments that are now open to them, urges Mark Higgins, CFA, CFP®. Trustees are often presented with “new opportunities” which are framed in a way that overstates the benefits, understates the risks, discounts the skills required to succeed, and all but ignores incrementally higher costs, he cautions. #EnterprisingInvestor

How the Chinese government could take the lead with public debt restructuring. CSPI Ratings (CSCI Pengyuan) anticipates a strategic framework to control and resolve local government debt. Summary as below: 📝 CSPI projects that the future evolution of China's public sector debt will be guided by a strategic framework characterised by the active increase of debt by the central government (CG). 📝CG's utilisation of ultra-long special bonds as a key mechanism for increasing leverage is projected to raise CG's debt ratio by approximately 5 percentage points in the long run. 📝The overall fiscal equilibrium of LGs will be upheld while deficit and debt pressures persist. 📝Resolving the short-term fiscal challenges and debt pressures of LGs necessitates a combination of augmenting revenue streams, reducing expenditures, and bolstering central transfer payments. However, the longterm solution lies in fundamental fiscal and tax system reforms. 📝The prolonged strategic manoeuvring between the central and local governments serves as the fundamental basis for debt resolution. 📝The implementation of the "Package of Debt Resolution Schemes" has bolstered the government's accountability in managing general debt, receiving widespread recognition in the market as a confidence boost for LGFVs. 📝The future landscape suggests that commercialised state-owned enterprises may emerge as the primary drivers of local leveraging efforts.

What is but a proverbial footnote in the emissions profiles of most companies is a critical component of financial institutions’ overall emissions disclosures, they note. #EnterprisingInvestor
