Global Pension Crisis: Unfunded Liabilities and How We Can Fill the Gap

Praise for Global Pension Crisis

"The global pension crisis is an increasingly important topic for business school students to understand. It will set the tone for prosperity in the U.S., Europe, Asia, and, in fact, most emerging markets in the coming years."
—Soumitra Dutta, Dean of the Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University, and ex-Deputy Dean at INSEAD, France

"Often in his career on Wall Street, Rich Marin proved himself one step ahead of his peers. Now he shares that prescience with us in Global Pension Crisis. He could not have picked a better topic: the perils of underfunded liabilities, once abstract, pose an all-too-real threat to American prosperity. Marin's diagnoses are lucid, right on the mark, and timely. This is a can that can't be kicked down the road any longer."
—Charles Ruffel, Managing Partner, Kudu Advisors LLC

"Marin's highly readable discourse on worldwide pension underfunding hits the trifecta: it is informative, eye-opening, and eminently useful. "
—Stephen Keating, Cofounder, Penbridge Advisors

"Everyone who cares about the pension predicament should read this book and, more importantly, engage with its arguments. They are realistic as well as optimistic, and that is a rare combination in this field."
—Dominic Hobson, Editorial Director, myInvestor Circle

"If you are over 50, the nightmare is the prospect of outliving your savings—the pension crisis. What do we do when we're old? Rich Marin has written an important book on the topic that, uniquely, normal humans will find clear, useful, and actually readable."
—Bo Cutter, Senior Fellow and Director, Economic Policy Initiative, Roosevelt Institute

"The author's background and experience provide him with the tools to analyze and describe the pension problem with the drama that it will have in the years to come. It is time to do something now. A great book for the general public to become aware of the problem."
—Juan Bilbao Hormaeche, Chairman and CEO, Consorcio Financiero SA

"The book offers practical and insightful lessons on Wall Street finance, or more accurately, lessons in the financing of life. Yes, it also does cover well and uniquely the pension crisis."
—Harold Bierman, Jr., Harold Bierman Distinguished Professor of Management, Cornell Univerity
