World's pension market hits $36.9tn in assets
Financial Standard
|September 22, 2025
The world's largest 300 pension funds have reached a new $36.9 trillion (US$4.4 trillion) record in terms of assets under management (AUM), according to a report by Willis Towers Watson's Thinking Ahead Institute.
The annual Global Top 300 Pension Funds report revealed combined AUM broke the previous record set in 2021 at $35.7 trillion (US$23.6 trillion) before a market correction in 2022 saw AUM dip.
However, the report noted that growth slowed slightly, up 7.8% in 2024, compared to 10% growth the previous year.
Concentration also continued. For the first time, the combined assets of the world's top 20 pension funds exceeded $15.1 trillion (US$10 trillion), increasing by 8.5% from the previous year to reach $15.6 trillion (US$10.3 trillion).
The top 20 funds increased at a faster pace than the top 300 pension funds and now account for 42.4% of the top 300 as a whole by assets.
