Cartoons depict a year like no other

Pensions & Investments is revisiting the challenging year that was 2020 through the eyes of its cartoonist, Roger Schillerstrom. His efforts were largely focused on the COVID-19 pandemic, starting in the early days of spring when a plunging stock market and the dangers of COVID-19 were forcing everyone to take dire, unprecedented actions. Summer included an industry forced to take a hard look at itself in the wake of nationwide racial strife. Other issues included the Department of Labor redefining ESG investing and proxy reform, and a promise of expanded retirement coverage through pooled employer plans. And of course, there are the challenges facing a new presidential administration and the hope it brings.
