Yeah, well, probably … somewhat? See my rant here (2nd half of the post) for how my current company handles this.
Pretty sure this is the case for some other companies: an asset management company will try to have their pension fund invest in products of said asset management company. In our case, it’s part of the agreement.
In, say, UBS’s case, their pension fund probably almost has to invest into some UBS products just for size reasons (not enough large enough institutional investment products available by other Swiss players) if not contractually enforced.
