How Public Pensions Fund Private Equity
Lucas and Luna explore how municipal pension funds, burdened by underfunded liabilities, are increasingly turning to private equity to chase higher returns. They examine the specific mechanics of this shift, the risks involved for public servants, and whether this strategy is a necessary evolution or a dangerous gamble with taxpayer money. The discussion focuses on the structural incentives driving these decisions and the long-term implications for public finance stability.
