This week it’s Te Wiki o te Reo Māori (Māori Language Week) here in Aotearoa New Zealand. This beautiful and unique language helps provide a greater understanding of te Ao Māori (the Māori worldview).

We’ve put together a video that explains who we are and what we do in te reo (with subtitles in English). Why not take less than 2 minutes to watch our short video? You might learn something new about us, and you’re sure to learn some new kupu (words).

We've shifted $25b of equities in our Reference Portfolio to align with the Paris Agreement and further reduce the Fund's exposure to carbon emissions. The shift will also significantly reduce the number of publicly listed companies that the Fund owns directly.

In addition to alignment with climate goals, we expect these new indices to deliver better ESG across the board. A smaller, more concentrated portfolio will be cheaper to run, and more manageable for us when looking to identify and engage on RI issues.

Our analysis suggests the new benchmarks would have historically delivered superior returns to our previous index. Our modelling also shows that the carbon reductions we've made since 2017 haven't hurt the financial performance of the Fund. Read more here nzsuperfund.nz/news-and-medi…
Our CEO Matt Whineray spoke to ⁦@nzheraldbiz⁩ about our annual result and what’s been happening in the markets: nzherald.co.nz/business/nz-s…

We've released our annual result to 30 June showing Fund NAV as $55.7b - down from $59b at the end of the previous financial year (-6.99%). However, our active management strategies out-performed our passive benchmark by 7.25%, generating a record $4.5 billion in value add.
This considerably reduced the impact of the broad market downturn and was the second best active returns result the Fund has achieved since we started investing in 2003. You can read our release about the result here: nzsuperfund.nz/news-and-medi…
We're aware of a scam where criminals impersonating NZSF employees have tricked people into thinking they’re investing with the Fund. It's important to note: we do not invest on behalf of individuals and we will never contact individuals to offer investment opportunities.
