Equity risk premium definition
Published by a LexisNexis Pensions expert
What does Equity risk premium mean?
Pension fund investors should earn more for investing in equities than investing in bonds, because equities are riskier – the company can go bust.
The amount extra that they earn is called the equity risk premium. Over the years it has proved to be around 4%, and the history is published every year in the BZW Equity/Gilt Study (in the UK) and Ibbotson and Sinquefield (in the US).
