HOW SHOULD WE MANAGE THE NEST EGG
(Asset, Endowment)?
For Maximum Long Run Return
![Page 14: Maximum Sustainable Yield: A Fiscal Road Map for Alaska · 2018-03-19 · Maximum Sustainable Yield: A Fiscal Road Map for Alaska Alaska State Senate . Senate Finance Committee](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041018/5ecba7ae704f51380256f115/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
DRAW each year at a rate that will
conserve the value of the Nest Egg for future generations of
Alaskans—the Maximum Sustainable Yield.
HOW MUCH OF THE NEST EGG SHOULD WE
SPEND?
![Page 15: Maximum Sustainable Yield: A Fiscal Road Map for Alaska · 2018-03-19 · Maximum Sustainable Yield: A Fiscal Road Map for Alaska Alaska State Senate . Senate Finance Committee](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041018/5ecba7ae704f51380256f115/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Maximum Sustainable Yield: Calculation
Nest Egg $149 Billion
Investment Return (After Inflation)
5%
Population Growth 1%
MSY Draw Rate 4% = (5%-1%)
MSY Draw $6 Billion = ($149*4%)

•After subtracting endowment spending on the PFD and adding in non-petroleum revenues. •To get on a MSY path, save all revenues above this amount.

Maximum Sustainable Yield: Implementation
• Gradual transition to GF Maximum Sustainable Yield level
• Protection of financial assets
• Active participation in management of petroleum in the ground thru alignment
• Establish monitoring system to track Nest Egg value, set MSY target for each budget, and track progress towards sustainability
![Page 22: Maximum Sustainable Yield: A Fiscal Road Map for Alaska · 2018-03-19 · Maximum Sustainable Yield: A Fiscal Road Map for Alaska Alaska State Senate . Senate Finance Committee](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041018/5ecba7ae704f51380256f115/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Maximum Sustainable Yield: Challenges to Implementation
Confusion about the concept
Uncertainty about portfolio size, rate of
return, population growth, risk aversion
Institutional constraints
Political challenge of constraining current
spending level
Fragility of social contract (trust)
Suppression of individual positive
discount rate
Speculative/Opportunistic migrants
Aversion to Public Savings Accounts
Negative effects of “Rentier Society” or
“Trust Fund Babies”
Indifference to future generations of
Alaskans
Past good luck will continue
Life was better before petroleum
Future generations preferences unknowable
Money in the bank is not working for Alaska
economy
IT CAN’T WORK IT SHOULDN’T BE TRIED
