Japan's Daiwa Institute Warns South Korea's National Pension of Overconcentration Risk on November 11

According to a report released by Japan's Daiwa Institute of Research on November 11, South Korea's National Pension Service (NPS) faces significant risks from excessive domestic stock allocation and delayed portfolio rebalancing. The institute stated that when a pension fund's presence becomes too dominant in its home market, rebalancing becomes difficult, potentially compromising beneficiary interests. NPS expanded domestic stock holdings during the AI and semiconductor boom but failed to rebalance timely, leading to substantial losses as the domestic market declined. The think tank emphasized that overconcentration on domestic assets—described as becoming a "whale in a pond"—undermines the fund's ability to prioritize insured members' welfare.
