Funded Activity Summary

An Examination of Strategic Investment Arrangements for Institutional Investors: The Case for Centralised Portfolio Management. The aim of this project is to examine the extent to which Australian superannuation funds are able to enhance their overall returns, achieve investment objectives, and minimise operating costs incurred. This will be achieved by examining the benefits of centralised portfolio management for superannuation funds, and consideration of how active and index management can be utilised within the overall fund structure. We will show the problems associated with the current portfolio configuration system adopted by super funds, and to identify areas where more optimal investment arrangements can significantly improve overall portfolio returns and reduce expenses.
