Defined Contribution Pension Plans : Mutual Fund Asset Allocation Changes

We investigate how flows into equity and fixed income mutual funds depend on macroeconomic conditions. We find that defined contribution plans react more sensitively to these conditions suggesting effects on mutual fund managers and other investors
