Institution: Public Officials Benefit Association
Headquarters: Seoul, South Korea
AUM:Â $11.0bn
Allocation to alternatives:Â 58.0%
The Public Officials Benefit Association plans to change its alternative investment portfolio to achieve higher risk-adjusted returns. The firm will consider blind-pool funds managed by global investment firms which it has built track records with before, and it will source deals through joint ventures and separately managed accounts with other global pension funds, instead of relying on domestic management firms and individual project-based investment.
For real estate, the firm would invest in logistics centers in Europe and Japan, and multi-family housings in the United States and Japan. The firm will continue investing in US real estate loans through joint ventures with pension funds.
As illustrated in the charts below, the $11.0 billion South Korean public pension fund has a 58.0 percent target allocation to alternative investment.
