MethodologyDuring the first half of 2021, Coalition Greenwich conducted in-depth interviews with 518 key decision-makers at the largest continental European institutional investors.
The 23rd annual research study covers the largest continental European corporate, public, and industry-wide defined benefit, defined contribution and hybrid pension funds, banks (including Sparkassen in Germany), foundations and churches, insurance and reinsurance companies, sovereign pension reserve funds and other non-pension institutional investors including official institutions, central banks, monetary authorities, sovereign wealth funds, and supra-nationals.
For all markets, interviewed institutional investors have externally-managed assets of over €100 million.

Total assets captured in Coalition Greenwich Continental Europe research are just over €5.5 trillion.
