Funded Activity Summary

An Investigation of Country- and Firm-Level Barriers to Australian Institutional Investments in Foreign Equity Markets. Australia's investment assets pool is ranked fourth in the world and is the largest in the Asia-Pacific region, yet Australia is ranked the second worst among 16 developed countries in internationally diversifying its investment portfolio. This project will identify global growth/diversification opportunities for Australian funds and assess their portfolio allocation practices against their international peers. The findings will encourage Australian funds to expand their investments in global equity markets, including Asia. This will enhance investment performance and make it possible to grow Australia's investment assets pool to the second largest in the world after the US, thereby increasing our long-term national wealth.
