CRS Report: Social Security -- The Trust Funds and Alternative Investments
Congressional Research Service [CRS] Link to more items from this source
May 3, 2019

25 pages. "Investing in marketable securities would signify a departure from the norms that govern the current investment practice. Investing in equities ... would demonstrate a similar departure from the trust funds' investment norms and would represent a government intervention into the private market. Some argue this expansion of investment options would be problematic because it dictates government ownership of, and possibly influence on, private companies.... [T]he historically higher returns on equity investment may motivate policymakers to enact changes to the OASDI Trust Funds' investment options and practices." [R45709, May 2, 2019]
