Orchard Global Asset Management's Bradley D. Belt, North Carolina State Treasurer Janet Cowell, and New York City Comptroller Scott Stringer, join Columbia University's Glenn Hubbard, to discuss the challenges of fulfilling pension obligations in the United States and how these liabilities will affect economic growth and stability. Though the panel suggests that federal leadership is lacking, they discuss ways that state and local pension systems are driving successful pension models, and the need for centralization and portability in benefit plans.

Belt, Vice Chairman, Orchard Global Asset Management Janet Cowell, Treasurer, State of North Carolina Scott Stringer, Comptroller, City of New York Presider: Glenn Hubbard, Dean and Russell L.
