The process includes meeting with leading outside experts to develop a three- to five-year outlook for the economy and interest rates. Quarterly economic forums help to determine how the outlook applies to upcoming months and to forecast specific influencing factors. Investment decisions are made based on this information. PIMCO uses innovative proprietary programs to identify investment opportunities and measure risk.
