World’s Largest Pension Fund Loses $61,000,000,000 in Three Months Amid US Dollar Decline

The largest pension fund in the world just announced a multi-billion dollar loss largely due to the declining value of the US dollar. Japan’s Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF) recorded a $61.1 billion shortfall in the January-March quarter, its first across-the-board loss in all asset classes since mid-2022, reports the Japan Times. The depreciating dollar, down 4.6% against the yen, significantly reduced the value of GPIF’s international holdings. Global stock markets also faltered, with the MSCI All-Country World Index declining 1.7%, the S&P 500 falling 4.6%, and Japan’s Topix index dropped 4.5%. The deficit reduced GPIF’s assets to $1.73 trillion, a 3.4% quarterly drop, as escalating US trade tariffs fueled concerns about a worldwide economic conflict, further weighing on equities. Meanwhile, Japanese bond yields rose, in contrast to declining US Treasury yields amid the Federal Reserve’s higher-for-longer interest rates. Despite the setback, GPIF achieved a positive annual return of 0.7% for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025. With roughly half its assets tied up in foreign markets, the GPIF will likely face ongoing risks from currency fluctuations and trade tensions in the months ahead, while the US and Japan try to hammer out a new agreement on trade.
