English term or phrase: Pensions plans/insurance products/Hedge(for funds)
Folks,

Here we go, once again i am stuck with my poor translations.
I found for pension plans = planos de jubilación
insurance products = corredor de seguros (this one sounds wrong)
Hedge = Seto (sounds wrong too!!) here i am trying to say Hedge funds (=particular funds to hedge a portfolio) could it be setos fondos?

I'll leave that to you!
Can you find better translations than me?
Thanks to the community!

Planes de jubilación


Explanation:
Pension plans = Planes de jubilación o pensión.

Insurance products = simply Seguros. Maybe also tipos de seguros.
Corredor de seguros is an insurance broker.

Hedge = I found compensar. So, hedge funds = fondos compensatorios.

Seto is a bush.

Good luck! :)

planes de jubilación/fondos compensatorios/


Explanation:
About insurance product. I think they are the advantages, all the services tha insurance company offers to you. So, it could be translated as: prestaciones del seguro (or something like that), because I´m not sure tha word Prestaciones is completely correct in this case.
Good luck!

planes de pensiones, seguros, cobertura


Explanation:
I would rather translate the terms as follows:

pension plans: "planes de pensiones"
insurance products: "productos de seguros" or just "seguros"
Hedge: "cobertura" or "protección"
Hedge funds: "fondos de cobertura" or "fondos de protección"

This are also common terms in the financial field, and all appear on the Dicc. Of Lozano Irueste de Economía y empresa., and Dicc. of Alcaraz Varó/Hughes.

Un saludo.

hedge fund=fondo hedge + explainatory footnote


Explanation:
a hedge fund is an international money exchange trading fund, ie. an organisation which speculates about international exchange rates and trades currencies on a day to day,hour to hour basis. hedge funds have been known to have such power (and lack of ethics) as to manipulate international money markets and ruin national economies and currencies - i suspect that the Spanish term will mimic the English term. See: http://www.magnum.com/hedgefunds/spanish.asp http://tinet.fut.es/~fllorens/tema9.htm

I went to http://mx.yahoo.com/ and searched on hedge & fond

fondos tipo hedge


Explanation:
Fondos hedge no son fondos compensatorios. Hedge se usa para muchos tipos de fondos que utilizan estrategias de inversión no convencionales y cuya prioridad es "minimizar el riesgo de inversión intentando producir retornos en cualquier circunstancia" (lo cual parece indicar que son poco éticos, como dice Paul... hasta dan escalofríos). La página de referencia explica todo sobre el tema.

Respecto al resto de los términos, coincido con Serena.
