Institutional investors (insurance companies, pension funds, and investment companies) are major collectors of savings and suppliers of funds to financial markets. The role of institutional investors as financial intermediaries and their impact on investment strategies has grown significantly over recent years along with deregulation and globalisation of financial markets.

This 2003 edition of the Statistical Yearbook provides a unique set of comprehensive statistics on institutional saving and investment for 28 OECD countries from 1992 onwards.
