Future Fund

The Future Fund, Australia's sovereign wealth fund, was established in 2006 to help strengthen the country's long-term financial position. It manages over $200 billion across multiple funds, including the Future Fund itself and the Medical Research Future Fund. The Future Fund invests with a focus on long-term capital preservation and generating returns to support future government needs. Their investment strategy is globally diversified across asset classes like equities, private equity, real assets, and alternatives. The fund emphasizes a "whole portfolio" approach, ensuring all investment teams work cohesively under the leadership of CIO Raphael Arndt. The fund recently increased its allocation to private equity and alternative assets as part of its broader portfolio strategy aimed at balancing risk and return. With a focus on innovation, particularly in technological disruption, the Future Fund invests significantly in venture capital and hedge funds, working with global partners who are at the cutting edge of investment technology. Their mission is to ensure resilience and adaptability in the face of evolving market conditions, leveraging both active and passive management across their diverse portfolio.
