RESUMEN

El objetivo del presente trabajo es doble: por un lado analizar los factores que inducen a un inversor a seleccionar un plan de pensiones concreto y por otro determinar si dichos inversores poseen habilidades de selección. Los resultados obtenidos al aplicar un análisis univariante muestran que los inversores seleccionan su plan de pensiones en función de la rentabilidad obtenida en el pasado, sin embargo, únicamente muestran capacidad de selección los partícipes más conservadores. Así mismo, los resultados obtenidos al aplicar un análisis multivariante indican que la antigüedad, el patrimonio acumulado por el plan, la rentabilidad pasada, y la naturaleza jurídica de la entidad depositaria ejercen un impacto significativo en las variaciones monetarias del plan de pensiones.

ABSTRACT

The aim of the present paper is two-fold: firstly, to analyse the factors that lead investors to choose a specific pension fund, and secondly, to determine whether these investors possess selection skills. The results of a univariate analysis show that investors choose their pension fund according to the returns it has obtained in the past; however, selection capabilities are shown by only the most conservative participants. Moreover, the results of a multivariate analysis indicate that the age of the fund, its accumulated assets, its past returns and the legal status of the custodian have a significant impact on monetary variations in pension funds.
